A జాతకం (jathakam) is written for a child soon after birth in most Telugu homes, and it comes out again when a pelli sambandham is being discussed. This page gives you a Telugu jathakam online, free, from the date, time and place of birth. It is a jathakam in Telugu in the full sense: rasi, nakshatram and graha names in Telugu script and the South Indian square chart a Telugu siddhanti reads. Families looking for jathakam in Telugu free, jathakam in Telugu for marriage or telugu jathakam matching for marriage will find the chart here, and an honest note on matching further down.
Astrology is a matter of belief and tradition. This tool does the astronomy and the drawing carefully, adds a detailed report of what the classical texts traditionally say about each placement, and leaves the final judgement to you and to a qualified astrologer. Its first tab, “Today for you”, shows the day’s Tara Bala and Chandra Bala from your own birth star and Moon sign, Rahu Kaal, Abhijit muhurat and Choghadiya; treat it as traditional guidance to check with a qualified jyotishacharya, not a rule to follow blindly.
What the Telugu jathakam online shows
The calculation runs in your browser. Your birth details are not uploaded, and there is no login.
- రాశి చక్రం (rasi chakram, D1) with all nine grahas and the lagnam, in the South Indian square style.
- నవాంశ (navamsa, D9) in the same style, which most astrologers look at beside the rasi chart.
- Planet table: rasi, degree, nakshatram and padam, house and vakra (retrograde) marks.
- లగ్నం (lagnam), చంద్ర రాశి (Moon sign) and జన్మ నక్షత్రం (janma nakshatram) with the padam.
- Vimshottari dasa (mahadasa periods) with dates.
- కుజ దోషం, Kaal Sarp and current ఏలినాటి శని checks.
- A warning when the Moon or the lagnam is near a boundary, so you know to double-check the birth time.
It is a complete jathakam in Telugu for practical use: both charts, the dasa and the doshas, not a preview. Some call it janam kundali in Telugu or janma kundali in Telugu; it is the same janma jathakam in Telugu under another name.
Detailed report, free. Under the charts the tool opens a detailed kundli report in nine tabs: panchang at birth, 15 divisional charts, planet and house readings, Ashtakavarga, about 25 yogas, doshas with free, harmless traditional remedies, Vimshottari dasha down to pratyantar level and transits. Names of signs, planets and nakshatras appear in Telugu; the reading text itself is in English and Hindi. The readings say what classical texts such as BPHS and Phaladeepika associate with a placement. They do not predict events and never discuss death, longevity or illness. The main kundli page describes every tab.
Settings used
Sidereal zodiac with Lahiri ayanamsa, mean Rahu and Ketu, whole-sign houses. Positions were checked against the Swiss Ephemeris for births from 1900 to today, so the chart should match a computer jathakam Telugu printout made elsewhere with the same settings.
How to read the Telugu rasi chakram
The South Indian chart is a square of twelve boxes around an empty centre. The one rule to remember: the rasis never move; the planets move through them.
| మీనం (Pisces) | మేషం (Aries) | వృషభం (Taurus) | మిథునం (Gemini) |
| కుంభం (Aquarius) | కర్కాటకం (Cancer) | ||
| మకరం (Capricorn) | సింహం (Leo) | ||
| ధనుస్సు (Sagittarius) | వృశ్చికం (Scorpio) | తుల (Libra) | కన్య (Virgo) |
- మీనం is always the top-left box. The signs run clockwise from there: మేషం, వృషభం, మిథునం along the top, then down the right side.
- Find the lagnam. Its box is marked with a diagonal line and the letter ల. That box is the 1st house.
- Count houses clockwise from the lagnam box.
- Read the short letters. ర (Ravi, Sun), చం (Moon), కు (Kuja, Mars), బు (Budha), గు (Guru), శు (Shukra), శ (Shani), రా (Rahu), కే (Ketu). Vakra grahas are marked.
- The middle is space for the name and the chart title.
The navamsa uses the same fixed grid, so you can compare the two charts box by box.

The 27 nakshatrams in Telugu
Your జన్మ నక్షత్రం is the star the Moon occupied at birth. The janma nakshatra jathakam in Telugu shows it with its padam, 1 to 4.

Make a jathakam in Telugu, step by step
1. Get the birth time right
The lagnam changes roughly every two hours and the Moon changes nakshatram about once a day. Use the time on the birth certificate or hospital discharge paper. If the tool warns that the Moon or lagnam is near a boundary, confirm the time before you share the jathakam.
2. Pick the place
Choose the town from 5,900+ places. Time zones are historical, so older dates use the offset that applied then. For a small village, enter latitude and longitude from a map.
3. Print or save
Press Print for a clean page with only the result. Choose Save as PDF to keep a copy. That is the telugu jathakam free download: a PDF your own browser makes, with no email step.
For a newborn
Telugu jathakam for new born baby charts are the same full chart. The telugu jathakam for newborn baby result gives the janma nakshatram and padam, which families often use for the naming ceremony.
What this page gives you, and what it doesn’t
A Telugu jathakam needs the time of birth as much as the date: the minute decides the lagnam, and everything after it follows from there.
On the page
- Rasi and navamsa charts, lagnam, the janma nakshatram with its pada, and the Vimshottari dasa with dates.
- Telugu script throughout, or any of seventeen other languages from the menu, English included.
- Both chart styles, so a North Indian family and a Telugu family can read the same printout.
- A detailed report with the traditional reading of each placement, drawn from the classical texts.
- Kuja dosham and Elinati shani, with the exceptions the texts list.
- Births from 1900 onwards, calculated with the Lahiri ayanamsa and checked against the Swiss Ephemeris.
- Print, then Save as PDF. No software, no app, no account.
Not on the page
- Rasi phalalu — daily, weekly, monthly or for the year.
- Predictions of events, and nothing about death, longevity or illness.
- The South Indian ten-point porutham, which this site does not calculate.
- A Word file of the chart.
- Anything for sale: no paid reading, no astrologer chat, no remedies.
Telugu jathakam matching for marriage
Matching is the question most families ask next. Our kundli matching page compares two birth charts with the North Indian 36-point Ashtakoot (guna milan): all eight koots, Nadi, Bhakoot and Gana dosha with commonly cited cancellations, and a Kuja dosham comparison. It is not the South Indian ten-point porutham, which this site does not calculate.
For telugu jathakam matching in Telugu the way your family’s siddhanti does it, make both jathakams here and take the printouts to them. The telugu jathakam for marriage compatibility result here is one input, not a verdict.
Regional names: Kuja dosham and Elinati shani
- కుజ దోషం (Kuja dosham) is the Telugu name for Manglik or Mangal dosh. The tool checks Mars from the lagnam, the Moon and Venus and lists commonly cited exceptions. See the Manglik dosh page.
- ఏలినాటి శని (Elinati shani) is Sade Sati: Saturn transiting the 12th, 1st and 2nd rasi from your Moon. The tool shows only whether it is running now and which phase.
- Kaal Sarp is checked when all grahas sit on one side of the Rahu-Ketu axis.
The tool reports these. The detailed report lists only free, harmless traditional remedies such as a beej mantra, charity and seva; it never recommends paid shanti pujas, gemstones or yantras. Please speak to a qualified astrologer before acting on any dosha.
Add the jathakam to a Telugu pelli biodata
A pelli jathakam in Telugu is usually shared with the biodata. After the chart appears, one button sends the rasi, nakshatram, Kuja dosham status and rasi chart into the biodata maker. Finish a Telugu biodata with Telugu headings or a general marriage biodata, then download it as a PDF. That one file carries the vivaha jathakam in Telugu details that the other family will ask for first.
Tips: write the nakshatram with its padam (for example పుష్యమి, padam 3), put the lagnam and rasi near the family details, and say plainly if the birth time is uncertain.
Privacy and limits
Your birth details stay on your device. The tool does not predict events, never discusses death, longevity or illness, sells no remedies and has no astrologer chat. For the English explanation of every table, see the main free kundli page.
The same birth chart can also be made in other languages: kundli in Gujarati, janam kundali in Bengali, Kannada jataka free, Malayalam horoscope, Tamil jathagam online free, free kundali in Marathi and Hindi kundli online free.
South Indian families can also add the chart to a Kannada marriage biodata or a biodata in Malayalam.
