In an unusual blend of ancient knowledge and modern technology, Hyderabad-based Aja AstroTech Pvt Ltd has launched a mobile application, Dosha Nivarana (DNA), that translates classical Vedic astrology principles into a digital format for everyday users.
Aja AstroTech Pvt Ltd launched Dosha Nivarana (DNA), billing it as India’s first app built entirely on the foundational principles of the Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra — the revered Vedic astrology canon attributed to Sage Parashara Muni.
The distinction matters to the founders. Unlike the wave of astrology platforms that layer machine-learning prediction over horoscope data, the DNA app’s engine is, at its core, a faithful software translation of classical Jyotisha logic — every calculation tracing back to the original Parasara text, not a neural network.
“This is not a horoscope app. This is a karma engine,” said Phaniraj Jaligama, Founder & CEO, Aja AstroTech Pvt Ltd.
The app was unveiled at a formal Hyderabad event in the presence of Badiga Srikanth, Group Director of Phonix; retired district judge Hemanth Kumar Dintyala; and former T-Hub CEO Srinivas Rao Mahankali.
CEO Phaniraj Jaligama walked attendees through the engine’s core premise: that the celestial alignment at the exact moment of a person’s birth creates a “cosmic blueprint” — and that Parashara’s principles, when encoded correctly, can read that blueprint with a rigour no general-purpose AI is designed to replicate.
A Jyotishi in Your Pocket — for Every Indian with a Smartphone
The platform’s capabilities are, by any measure, unusually comprehensive for a first release. The engine automatically detects 50 classical Doshas across five categories, matches them to a library of 75-plus Parasara-rooted remedies, and generates personalised reports spanning everything from a child’s Janma Patrika to a Rahu-Ketu axis analysis. A dedicated Muhurtha suite covers 19 life events — calculating auspicious timing with the precision the tradition demands.
A Family Management module allows a single account to hold charts for multiple family members, a feature aimed squarely at India’s joint-family culture. The app launches in Telugu and English, with 11 additional Indian languages planned for June.
