AstroTalk is a major e-commerce platform for connecting astrologers and people over text-based conversations and phone calls. The company was founded in 2017 and initially allowed people to video chat with astrologers. The company is headquartered in Uttar Pradesh, Noida, India.

History

Established by Puneet Gupta, AstroTalk operates on the B2C (business-to-consumer) model. Initially, AstroTalk's service was limited to allowing people to video chat with astrologers from across India. The company revamped the business model in 2018 that completely discarded the video-chat concept to adopt the simple chat and phone call based model.

Currently, AstroTalk operates in multiple countries including the UK, USA, Canada, etc., with its major customer base coming from India. As of 2021, the company's turnover stands at Rs 120 crore.

In 2018, AstroTalk had 500+ astrologers on board. Till the end of 2021, the number has grown to 1800+ astrologers, including both national and international astrologers. The platform also has onboard celeb astrologers such as Amarjit Agarwal, mother of Bigg Boss OTT 2021 winner Divya Agarwal. http://www.uniindia.com/astrotalk-stands-tall-with-the-most-accurate-and-foolproof-future-predicts/newsvoir/news/1762628.html
