Question 1

Can I get an accurate Kundli if I was born in Oman?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Your chart is computed for the exact coordinates of your birthplace in Oman and for the real local time that applied there on your birth date. Oman does not observe daylight saving, so the offset is stable — the table above shows it. GrahAI resolves this from your birthplace automatically, so your Lagna and house cusps are correct.

Question 2

Do I need to convert my birth time to Indian Standard Time first?

Accepted Answer

No — and you should not. Entering an IST-converted time is one of the most common ways a chart goes wrong, because many calculators then apply an offset a second time. Enter your birth time exactly as it is recorded on your Oman birth certificate, along with your birth city. The conversion is handled correctly for you.

Question 3

Can I match horoscopes when one person was born in India and the other in Oman?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and this is one of the most common requests from the diaspora. Each horoscope is computed independently in its own birthplace and real local time, then matched on the full 36-point Ashtakoot system with dosha analysis — so the result is correct even when the two births are separated by continents.

Question 4

Do Hindu festivals fall on the same date in Oman as in India?

Accepted Answer

Not always — 1 of the festivals we compute fall on a different date in Oman this year: Dussehra (Vijayadashami). A tithi begins and ends at one instant worldwide, but whether the moment the festival's rule points at — sunrise, sunset or moonrise — falls inside it depends on where you are, so the shift runs opposite to the timezone. The table above gives both dates.

Question 5

Can I pay in my own currency?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Reports are billed in USD for the diaspora (and in INR within India), shown automatically based on where you are, and you can pay securely by card or PayPal. Your report is delivered online instantly and emailed to you — nothing needs to be posted from India.

Question 6

Is this genuine Vedic astrology or a generic horoscope?

Accepted Answer

It is genuine Jyotish computed from your real chart — planetary positions via the Swiss Ephemeris with Lahiri ayanamsa, Vimshottari dasha periods, yogas and doshas — read for your exact placements. It is not a sun-sign horoscope. You can read the cover and first chapter of any report free before deciding.
