01
What does a business Vastu visit cover?
A business visit follows the same steps as any consultation — see how a consultation works. What changes is the focus: we look at how money, customers, staff and goods move through your space, not only at the rooms.
Before the visit, it helps to share a floor plan, a note of who sits where, and what you want to improve — sales, staff turnover, cash flow or client trust.
01
Compass readings
Directions are measured on site, not guessed from the lift lobby or the building's name.
02
Seating map
Where the owner, partners, accounts team and sales staff sit, and which way each one faces.
03
Money points
The cash counter, locker, billing desk and the place where cheques and important files are kept.
04
Service areas
Pantry, kitchen, server room, generator, stores and toilets — the areas that most often land in the wrong zone.
05
Outside the door
Poles, pillars, flyover shadows or a dead-end corridor directly in front of your entrance.
02
Office Vastu: what matters most?
In an office, a handful of decisions carry most of the weight. Get these right first; décor comes later.
01
Owner's seat
The owner or director sits in the South-West (Nairutya, नैऋत्य) zone, facing East or North, with a solid wall behind the chair and no beam overhead. This zone stands for stability and control.
02
Cash and accounts
The North is linked with money flow. Keep it free of clutter and broken equipment, and have lockers and cash drawers open towards the North or East.
03
Reception
A clean, bright reception in the North-East or East gives visitors a calm first impression.
04
Staff desks
Team members work facing East or North. Keep the centre of the office open instead of packing it with workstations or cupboards.
05
Conference room
The North-West or West suits meetings, negotiations and client discussions.
06
Pantry and toilets
A pantry with a microwave or coffee machine suits the South-East, the fire zone. Keep toilets and heavy storage out of the North-East.
03
Shop and showroom Vastu: what matters most?
A shop earns from footfall, so the entrance and the path a customer walks matter as much as the cash counter.
01
Entrance and name board
Keep the entrance bright and free of stacked boxes, dustbins and broken signs. The name board should be clean, lit and easy to read from the road.
02
Cash counter
The owner or cashier sits in the South-West corner facing East or North, with the cash drawer opening towards the North or East.
03
Open centre
Leave the middle of the shop empty. A clear walking path lets customers move easily and see more of your range.
04
Stock and racks
Keep goods ready for sale in the North-West, the zone of movement. Heavy racks can run along the South and South-West walls.
05
Windows and display
Keep the North and East open or glazed where possible, and put your strongest products where they can be seen from the door.
06
Stairs and mezzanines
If the shop has internal stairs, the South-West, South or South-East suits them.
04
Hotel and restaurant Vastu: what matters most?
Hospitality runs on goodwill and repeat guests. Here Vastu is about a welcoming front, a well-placed fire zone and rooms guests want to come back to.
01
Kitchen and heat
The kitchen, tandoor, generators, inverters and other heating equipment belong in the South-East. If that is not possible, the North-West is the fallback for the kitchen.
02
Reception and lobby
Place reception in the North-East and keep it clean, bright and uncluttered.
03
Cash register
The West or South-West suits the billing counter, with the drawer opening towards the North or East.
04
Guest rooms
Plan room doors to open towards the East or North wherever the layout allows.
05
Toilets
Place them between South and South-West, or between East and South-East — never in the North-East.
06
Light and colour
Pleasant colour schemes and good lighting keep the mood lively. Very dark, dim dining rooms work against the spirit of the place.
07
Choosing a site
Avoid plots sitting over large drains or next to cemeteries.
05
Clinic and hospital Vastu: what matters most?
Vastu complements medical practice; it never replaces diagnosis, treatment or hospital safety codes. Its aim in a clinic is a calm, orderly space that reassures patients and keeps staff comfortable.
01
Entrance
An East- or North-facing entrance that is wide, well lit and easy to find, including for elderly patients and stretchers.
02
Reception and waiting
Reception near the entrance, in the North-East or East, with staff facing East or North. Waiting areas should be airy, with comfortable seating.
03
Consultation rooms
Place them in the East or North of the premises. The doctor's chair sits in the South-West corner of the room, facing East or North.
04
Operation theatres
The West to South-West suits OTs, kept well lit, ventilated and sterile.
05
Wards and beds
Wards in the North-East or North-West, with the head of the bed towards the South or West where possible.
06
Staff areas and toilets
Nurses' stations and staff rooms suit the North-West or South-East; toilets suit the North-West or West.
07
Colour and nature
Soft pastel walls, daylight, indoor plants and a few crystals create a soothing mood. Avoid dark, harsh colours.
06
Vastu for schools, colleges and coaching classes
A learning space should help students settle down and focus. The biggest gains usually come from the direction students face and a quiet, well-lit study zone.
01
Site and entrance
A square or rectangular plot without cuts or extensions is preferred. The main entrance suits the East or North-East.
02
Classrooms
Place classrooms in the North-East, East or North. Students face East or North, and so does the teacher's desk at the front. Avoid pillars and sharp corners inside the room.
03
Library
The North-East or North, kept orderly and well lit, with comfortable seating.
04
Labs
Science and computer labs suit the North-West or South-East, with good ventilation and safety equipment.
05
Principal and admin
The principal's cabin and administration offices suit the South-West or South.
06
Play and canteen
Playgrounds in open space in the East, North or North-East; the canteen in the North-West or South-East.
07
Colours
Light, soft wall colours in classrooms. Avoid dark or harsh shades.
07
Rented office, shop or co-working desk? You can still apply Vastu
Most businesses in Mumbai rent their premises, and many share a floor. That is not a problem: VastuKimaya's remedies are non-structural, so nothing is broken or rebuilt and your lease stays safe.
When you cannot choose the room, you can still choose what happens inside it.
- Change the direction you face — turning a desk is often the single most useful step.
- Move the cash box, locker or billing machine to the right zone within your own area.
- Use colour, lighting, mirrors, metal strips, plants, crystals or pyramids to balance a zone you cannot change.
- In a co-working space, choose a desk or cabin where you sit with a wall behind you, facing East or North.
- Clear the North and North-East of your area of files, cartons and old electronics.
- Most remedies are portable, so they move with you to your next premises.
08
When should you do it: new office, shifting or renovation?
01
Before you sign
The cheapest time for Vastu is before you take the premises. Two or three options can be compared from their floor plans — see property selection.
02
Before interiors start
Have the designer's layout checked. Moving a cabin or pantry on paper costs nothing; moving it after carpentry does.
03
Shifting in
Plan the seating before move-in day, so staff start in the right places instead of being moved twice.
04
Renovation or expansion
A new floor, counter or branch changes the zones. A short review keeps the new layout in line with your earlier report.
प्रश्न Questions
Common questions about Office & Business Vastu
Which direction should an office entrance face as per Vastu?
North- and East-facing entrances are traditionally preferred, but an office facing South or West is not automatically a problem. What matters more is the exact position of the door along that wall and how the zones inside are used. A compass reading on site shows whether the entrance needs balancing, which is usually done with colour, metal strips or placement changes.
Can Vastu increase sales in my shop?
Vastu cannot promise a sales figure. What it does is remove things that quietly work against a shop: a blocked entrance, a cashier facing the wrong way, stock stuck in the wrong zone, a cluttered centre. Many owners find the space feels easier to work in and easier for customers to walk through, which supports the business.
Which colours suit an office as per Vastu?
Light, calm colours such as white, cream, soft yellow and pale green suit most offices, because they keep the space bright and easy on the eyes. Stronger accents can be used in specific zones, for example warm tones in the South-East. Very dark walls in work areas are usually avoided. The right palette depends on your layout and is listed in your report.
Can commercial Vastu be done from a floor plan without a site visit?
Yes. Businesses outside Mumbai, or those with a tight schedule, can have a consultation remotely using a floor plan marked with North and photographs of each area. A site visit adds compass measurements and lets Dr. Kimaya see things a plan cannot show, such as shadows, obstructions and the way people actually use the space.
Does one Vastu consultation cover all my branches?
No. Each branch sits on a different plot, faces a different direction and has its own layout, so each one needs its own check. The principles stay the same, which makes later branches quicker to assess. If you are opening a new branch, it is worth sharing its floor plan before the lease is signed.
Is Vastu for a clinic a substitute for medical treatment?
No. Vastu for a clinic or hospital is about the environment — layout, light, colour and flow — and aims to make the space calmer for patients and staff. It works alongside proper medical care, qualified doctors and safety regulations, never in place of them. Anyone unwell should always follow their doctor's advice.
How much does an office Vastu consultation cost?
The fee depends on the size of the premises, the type of business and whether a site visit is needed. The first consultation call is free, and you receive a clear quote after Dr. Kimaya understands your space. Call +91 98208 98975 or use Book free consultation to start.
Is there a commercial Vastu consultant in Andheri East?
Yes. Dr. Kimaya Parikh-Ambekar of VastuKimaya works from A-1304, Naman Premier, Marol Military Road, Andheri East, Mumbai, and advises offices, shops, restaurants, hotels, clinics and educational institutes. She visits premises across Mumbai and also consults remotely using floor plans, so businesses outside the city can be advised too.
