Nadi dosha
The zero on Nadi that comes from both partners sharing the same nadi — the most-discussed flaw in a kundli match.
Nadi dosha is what a match has when both moon nakshatras fall in the same nadi, so the eight-point koota scores nothing. Because it is the heaviest koota, a match with nadi dosha rarely reaches the eighteen-point line unless everything else is perfect.
Classical texts list exemptions: same rashi but different nakshatras, same nakshatra but different padas, and a few others, plus remedies for the cases that remain. Which exemptions apply is exactly the question to bring to an astrologer with the full charts. TrueSaath's calculator reports the dosha and does not apply exemptions.
