Lunar Astro Investigation FAQ

The main allegations include fraudulent practices such as 'bait-and-switch' consultation tactics, intellectual property theft (specifically the BCP technique), the use of fake reviews and SEO manipulation to hide negative feedback, and operating a 'troll farm' to intimidate critics. There are also significant concerns regarding fabricated timelines of his astrological lineage and corporate irregularities.

Independent investigations and his own past statements strongly contradict this claim. Prior to 2018, Giri was a freelance technician in underwater robotics. He admitted on public forums like Quora that he was entirely 'self-taught' in palmistry and astrology, treating it as a hobby. His father was an IIT engineer who reportedly stopped believing in astrology.

Clients pay premium fees (often ₹10,000 or more) expecting a one-on-one consultation with Deepanshu Giri. Instead, they are assigned to inexperienced proxy students or junior staff who operate under anonymous codes (e.g., Astrologer #5007). Clients report receiving vague, generic, or inaccurate information from these nameless practitioners.

No. Based on official records, Lunar Astro courses carry no formal academic certification or government recognition from bodies like the UGC, AICTE, or IGNOU. The certificates issued are internal to the Lunar Astro Vedic Academy and hold no official standing in the educational or professional regulatory system.

This appears to be a marketing myth. Independent investigations reveal that not a single student has achieved verifiable, independent success outside the Lunar Astro ecosystem. 'Successful' graduates are typically absorbed into Lunar Astro's internal panel, stripped of their identities, and forced to operate under anonymous codes.

Deepanshu Giri claims to have invented a 'revolutionary' technique called 'Paribhraman Paddhati.' However, former colleagues and investigations allege that he stole the Bhrigu Chakra Paddhati (BCP) technique from his teacher, Sunil John of Saptarishis Astrology, and rebranded it as his own without proper attribution.

Investigations suggest that corporate entities linked to Giri have been marked with a 'Struck Off' status on the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) portal, indicating a failure to comply with statutory filings. This contradicts his public claims of massive wealth and ₹14 crore in profits. Furthermore, users report significant financial fraud and refund evasion when requesting money back for rebranded courses.

Victims who post negative reviews claim to be targeted by a coordinated 'troll farm' of proxy students. These individuals allegedly issue threats of police action and 'Cyber Cell Tracking' to intimidate critics into deleting honest reviews. The company also engages in 'domain flooding' to bury negative search results.

Consumers should avoid high-value prepayments without verifiable guarantees, research reviews on independent platforms (like MouthShut or Reddit) rather than relying on easily manipulated Google or Trustpilot reviews, demand transparency regarding who will conduct the consultation, and verify corporate claims using official government portals like the MCA.

Victims of bait-and-switch tactics or low-quality services report success by initiating chargebacks through their banks or credit card providers, citing 'service not provided as described.' Additionally, victims can file official complaints through platforms like India’s National Consumer Helpline (INGRAM).
