01
✗ Exaggerating Height or Age
✓Fix: Always be accurate — 1-2 inch lies are discovered at the first meeting and destroy trust instantly.
02
✗ Writing Exact Income Instead of a Range
✓Fix: Use ranges like "₹12–18 LPA" instead of exact figures. More professional, less awkward.
03
✗ Leaving Manglik Status Blank
✓Fix: Write the accurate status or "Not Known" — never leave it blank, as it creates suspicion.
04
✗ Using a Stiff Passport Photo
✓Fix: Use a natural, smiling, well-dressed photo with good lighting — not an official background photo.
05
✗ Writing Only "Brahmin" Without Sub-Caste
✓Fix: Specify the exact community: Konkanastha, Iyer, Iyengar, Nagar Brahmin, etc.
06
✗ Partner Expectations That Are Too Long
✓Fix: Keep expectations to 2-4 sentences. Focus on values, not a checklist of specifications.
07
✗ Grammar & Spelling Errors
✓Fix: Have a family member proofread. Run through Google Docs spell-check at minimum.
08
✗ Outdated Information
✓Fix: Update your biodata every 6 months — job changes, city changes, income changes matter.
09
✗ Only One Phone Number
✓Fix: Include your number AND a parent or sibling's number as alternate contact.
10
✗ Not Mentioning NRI Status
✓Fix: If settled abroad, mention it prominently — many families specifically seek NRI matches.
11
✗ Sharing as Word Document
✓Fix: Always share as PDF — Word formatting breaks on different computers and looks unprofessional.
12
✗ Leaving Gotra Blank
✓Fix: For Hindu families, gotra is critical. Ask your parents if you don't know — don't leave it blank.
13
✗ Not Saying "Caste No Bar"
✓Fix: If genuinely open to all castes, write it clearly — otherwise you only receive same-caste proposals.
14
✗ Generic Hobbies (Just "Reading, Cooking")
✓Fix: Be specific: "Carnatic classical music, Sahyadri hiking, South Indian cooking" — makes you memorable.
15
✗ No Time of Birth for Kundali
✓Fix: For communities where kundali matching matters, time of birth is essential. Include even an approximate time.
