DP BOS

DP BOS publishes Satta Matka results. That is the whole of it: when a market declares, its number appears here, and every number it has ever declared stays in its chart. There is nothing to sign up for, nothing to install and nothing to pay.

This page explains what the numbers are, where the game came from, how the markets are structured and how to read the charts — so that someone arriving for the first time can make sense of a results board, and someone who has read one for years can check a detail.

What Satta Matka is

Satta Matka began in Mumbai in the 1960s. The earliest version was built on the opening and closing rates of cotton traded on the Bombay Cotton Exchange, wired in from New York. When that link ended in the 1960s the game did not stop; it moved to numbers drawn by hand instead, and the structure it has today grew out of that switch.

The name comes from the matka — the earthen pot those numbers were drawn from. Slips bearing digits went into the pot and were pulled out at a fixed hour. The pot is long gone and results are published digitally now, but every piece of vocabulary the game still uses comes from that period: satta meaning a wager, matka the pot, ank a single figure, jodi a pair, panna or patti a three-figure combination.

How a market works

A market is a named draw with fixed hours, and it declares in two halves. The open comes first, at the start of its window; the close follows at the end of it, usually one to three hours later. Between the two, a market is part-published — the open figure is final and the close has not happened yet.

Each half produces a three-digit panna. The panna reduces to a single ank, and the two anks together form the jodi. That is why a result is always written as three parts and why they always agree with one another: the jodi is not drawn separately, it is derived from the two pannas.

Markets run on their own calendars. Most draw six days a week and rest on Sunday; some draw every day. Public holidays vary by market. A day a market did not draw is not a missing result — it is a day that market was closed, which is why the charts mark it rather than leaving a blank.

Times are Indian Standard Time. A market whose close time is earlier than its open time closes on the following calendar day — a night market opening at 10:30 PM and closing at 12:30 AM has not made a mistake.

How to read a result

Every result is printed in the same three parts, separated by hyphens: the open panna, the jodi, and the close panna. A completed result looks like 480-23-346.

• Panna (also called patti) is the three-digit figure at each end — 480 and 346 above.
• Ank is the single digit a panna reduces to: add its three digits and keep the last digit of the total. 4+8+0 = 12, so the open ank is 2. 3+4+6 = 13, so the close ank is 3.
• Jodi is the two-digit figure in the middle, formed from those two anks — 23.
• Final Ank is the jodi reduced the same way: 2+3 = 5, so the Final Ank is 5. It appears at the top of this page for every market as soon as the jodi is published.

Until the second half arrives the line is printed part-filled, as 480-**-*** — the open is real, the asterisks are simply not out yet. Before a market has declared at all, this site shows its most recent earlier result with the date it belongs to printed underneath, rather than a row of asterisks.

The number formats

The same result is read in several formats. They are not separate draws; every one of them is derived from the two pannas the market declared.

• Single — one digit, 0 to 9. The open ank and the close ank are both singles.
• Jodi — two digits, 00 to 99. The pair formed by the open and close anks.
• Panna / patti — three digits. Written in ascending order, which is what makes only 220 of the 1,000 possible three-digit figures valid.
• Single patti — a panna whose three digits are all different, such as 123.
• Double patti — a panna with one digit repeated, such as 112.
• Triple patti — all three digits the same, such as 777. There are only ten of these.
• Half sangam — one side's panna paired with the other side's ank.
• Full sangam — both pannas of the day together.

Open and close

"Open to close", often shortened to OTC, means both halves of the same day's result rather than one of them. A market's open tells you half the jodi; the close completes it. Because the two are declared hours apart, a market spends a good part of its day part-published, and reading a board well means knowing which half you are looking at.

On this site that distinction is explicit. A part-published market shows its real open followed by asterisks, and the Final Ank stays -- until the jodi exists, because the ank cannot be worked out from half a result.

Charts, and what they are for

Every market keeps two charts, both built from the same published results this page shows, laid out a week to a row:

• Jodi chart — the two-digit jodi for each day. The quickest way to read a market's history, and the one most people open first.
• Panel chart — the same days with each result's open and close pannas written out in full, the jodi between them.

Days a market did not declare are marked ** rather than left blank, so a gap is always visible as a gap. Charts go back as far as this site's records run and can be read a year at a time.

Charts are what people mean by guessing. Reading back over weeks or months, looking at how often a figure has come, which jodis cluster, how a market behaves on particular days — that is what the panel and jodi charts are used for. It is worth being straight about the limit of it: a draw has no memory, and no amount of history changes what the next one does. A chart tells you what happened. It does not tell you what will.

Reading the board

Markets are listed in the order they draw through the day, not alphabetically, so the page reads top to bottom as the day progresses. Each row shows the market, its result, its declaring window and links to both of its charts. The Final Ank strip at the top collects every market's ank in one line, which is the figure most people check first.

The page updates itself. When a market declares, the number appears within a few seconds without the page being reloaded — the small live dot under the results is there to show that it is still listening. Nothing needs to be pressed and nothing needs to be refreshed.

On a phone

Most people read results on a phone, often on a weak connection, so that is what this site is built for first. There is no app to install and no webfont to download; the page is a few kilobytes and the numbers are in the HTML before any script runs, so they appear as soon as the page does rather than after it finishes loading.

A word on playing

Satta Matka is a game of chance. Every draw is independent of the one before it, no pattern in a chart changes the odds of the next result, and nobody can tell you a number in advance — anyone claiming a fixed or guaranteed figure is selling something. If you play, set a limit before you start, treat it as money you are prepared to lose, and never chase a loss.

Gambling is regulated differently from state to state in India and is illegal in many of them. Whether you may lawfully take part is your responsibility to establish, not this site's.
