Kolkata has one of the oldest Marwari communities in India, centred on Burrabazar and Posta and now spread to Alipore, Ballygunge, Salt Lake and Lake Town, and these families want Hindi speaking Pandits for Diwali Lakshmi Puja, Chopda Pujan, Sundarkand Path and weddings in Rajasthani vidhi.

Durga Saptashati Path in Kolkata: FAQs

If yours is not here, ask it. A real person answers every message on WhatsApp.

How do I book a Pandit for Durga Saptashati Path in Kolkata?

Tap Book on this page or message us on WhatsApp with the date, your address in Kolkata and your family tradition. We confirm a Pandit, the vidhi and the dakshina before you book. Samagri is not included in the dakshina; it is at an additional cost, agreed after discussion with Pandit ji. There is no payment to enquire.

What is the cost of Durga Saptashati Path in Kolkata?

Durga Saptashati Path in Kolkata starts from about ₹6,100 for one Pandit and around 3 to 4 hours for a single complete path. The final dakshina depends on the number of Pandits, the chant count, and travel within Kolkata. Samagri is not included in the dakshina; it is at an additional cost, agreed after discussion with Pandit ji. We share an exact quote on WhatsApp.

Can I get a Hindi speaking Pandit for Durga Saptashati Path in Kolkata?

Yes. Pandits in Kolkata speak Bengali, Hindi, Marwari and Bhojpuri. Tell us the language you want the puja explained in and whether you follow North Indian or local vidhi, and we match the Pandit.

Do you send Pandits to Burrabazar, Posta, Salt Lake and New Town?

Yes. Pandits come to homes across Kolkata, including Burrabazar, Posta, Salt Lake, New Town, Howrah and Ballygunge, and nearby towns on request. Share your address and we confirm travel.

Will the Pandit bring the samagri for Durga Saptashati Path?

Samagri is not included in the dakshina. The Pandit sends the Durga Saptashati Path samagri list in advance; you can buy it yourself, or Pandit ji can arrange it in Kolkata at an additional cost, agreed after discussion.

Yes. We can stream the puja live on video, or arrange a fully online Durga Saptashati Path with sankalp in your family's name.

Can the Pandit read Durga Saptashati for all nine days of Navratri?

Yes. Families usually choose either one full path every day, or a set number of chapters each day so the whole text is completed by Navami. Either can be done at your home or online with sankalp in your name, and closed with a havan on Ashtami or Navami.

Is the path read in Sanskrit? Will the meaning be explained?

The path is recited in the original Sanskrit, since correct pronunciation is part of the tradition. If you would like, the Pandit can explain the sankalp and the story of each charitra in Hindi, or in Telugu or Kannada where that is your family's language.

What is Shat Chandi Path?

In a Shat Chandi the Saptashati is recited one hundred times, usually by a team of Pandits over several days, followed by a Chandi Homam. It is a larger undertaking chosen for important family occasions or community pujas, and needs planning well ahead.
