About this format

A boy’s biodata is read for three things first: what he does, where he works and how settled he is. Put those near the top, keep the rest short, and add a clear photo.

What the girl’s family looks for first

  • Education and occupation: the degree, job title, employer and city.
  • Income: a monthly or yearly figure, if your family is comfortable sharing it.
  • Family background: parents’ occupations, siblings, native place.
  • Horoscope details: time and place of birth, rashi, gotra, if the families match kundlis.
  • Photo: recent and clear.

How to write job and income

  • Name the role, the company or business, and the city: “Senior Software Engineer, Infosys, Bengaluru”.
  • For a family business, describe it plainly: “Runs family hardware business, Deoghar, 12 years”.
  • Write income one way and stick to it: “₹18 LPA” or “₹1.5 lakh per month”. Round figures are fine; inflated ones come out in the first conversation.
  • Government job? Give the post and department: “Assistant Section Officer, CSS, New Delhi”.

If you live or work abroad

Add the country and city, your visa status (work visa, permanent resident or citizen), and how often you visit India. Families plan around these, so stating them up front saves time.

Photo tips for boys

Use a recent, well-lit photo from the chest up. A collared shirt or kurta against a plain wall works best. Skip sunglasses, group photos and heavy filters.
