Every Occasion, Performed in Full

Our services fall into four groups: poojas performed at home for the family, homas conducted before the sacred fire, ceremonies for offices and commercial premises, and astrology and vaastu consultation.

Each listing below tells you what the ceremony is for, roughly how long it takes, what we bring and what you should keep ready. Where a price is shown as 'on request', it is because the dakshina depends on the duration, the number of priests and the travel involved — call us and you will get a clear figure straight away.

Questions About Booking a Ceremony

Often, yes. It depends on whether an auspicious window exists near your date and whether the samagri can be arranged in time. Call us with the date and we will tell you honestly.

Yes, for ceremonies outside the city we arrange travel in advance and include it in the quote.

It depends on the ceremony. A Sathyanarayana pooja is usually one priest; a marriage or a large homa may need three or more. The number is agreed at the time of booking.

Tell us as early as you can and we will re-check the panchanga for the next suitable muhurta. There is no charge for rescheduling.
