Nadi Dosha arises in marriage matching when both partners share the same Nadi (Vata, Pitta or Kapha) — the nakshatra-based constitution channel. In Ashtakoota guna milan it carries the heaviest weight: 8 of the 36 points.
Both partners' birth nakshatras belong to the same Nadi group. Kundli Sky's matching engine checks this automatically from both Moon positions, along with the classical exceptions — same Nadi but different rashi or different nakshatra-charana weakens the dosha considerably.
Classically linked to health-compatibility and progeny concerns in the match — the reasoning being that identical constitutions double weaknesses rather than balancing them. It says nothing about love, loyalty or financial compatibility.
Nadi Dosha zeroes 8 points, so a match can score 'poorly' on paper while every other factor is excellent — this is why the score alone should never decide a marriage. The classical texts list explicit cancellations (bhed), and remedy traditions exist precisely because the dosha was never meant to be an absolute veto. See the whole match, not one koota.
Classically: Maha Mrityunjaya japa, Nadi-dosha nivaran puja where family tradition asks for it, and — most practically — weighing the full 36-point picture plus Mars analysis and both charts' 7th houses before any decision.
