Our Story

Built by the community, for the community.

Sonar Samaj Matrimony began in 2018 as a volunteer-run register maintained by the Suvarnakar Samaj committee in Pune. Today it is a trusted digital platform connecting Sonar families across India and abroad, while keeping the personal touch of a community introduction.

What we stand for

Our values come from the Samaj itself: honesty in every introduction, respect for every family, and celebration of our shared heritage.

Trust First

Every profile is checked by a committee moderator before it goes live. No bots, no brokers, no anonymous accounts.

Family Involved

Profiles can be managed by parents or siblings, and our Kundali and gotra tools respect the traditions families care about.

Not-for-Profit Spirit

Membership fees fund verification, support staff, and community meetups. Surplus goes back to Samaj education scholarships.
