- The same scale as our Plot Vastu checker, 10 a question, 20 for the surroundings
How the plot is scored
Vastu Shastra is the traditional Indian system that judges land and buildings by direction, slope and shape.
- Questions
- 10
Facing, roads, slope, raised side, shape, soil, extensions, tilt, surroundings and distance from the main road.
- Points
- 10 a question
The surroundings count for 20. The score is a percentage over the questions you answer.
- Best facing
- East
East scores highest in this table, then northeast and north.
How to check the Vastu of a plot
- 1
Stand on the land
Note which way the road side faces, where the roads run, and which way the ground falls. A phone compass is enough.
- 2
Answer what you know
Pick the answers you are sure of and skip the rest. The score is over the ones you answer.

Read the table
Each answer shows its points and the ideal, so you see which ones cost the most.
When it helps with land
Shortlisting plots
Compare two or three sites on the same scale before the family visits them.
Before paying an advance
Settle the Vastu question early, before a token advance, rather than after.
Planning the house
Know the plot's weak points, such as a southwest slope, so the architect can plan around them.
Vastu is customary guidance and says nothing about title, approval or soil strength. Check the owner in the revenue records, the zone and the approvals before you buy.
Questions people ask
What is the best facing for a plot?
East scores highest, then northeast and north, in this table. Southwest scores lowest.
Is an east facing plot good as per Vastu?
Yes. East facing takes the full 10 points for facing in this table.
Which way should the plot slope?
Towards the northeast scores highest, then east and north. A plot raised in the southwest scores highest for the raised side.
I only know the facing and the shape.
Answer those two. The score is over the questions you answer.
Is Vastu a legal requirement?
No. It is customary guidance. Nothing here affects registration, approval or title.
What about the house on the plot?
The home Vastu mini scores the rooms of a house by direction: entrance, kitchen, bedrooms, toilets and more.
Is this free?
Yes.
