KYC Verified
Every member, identity-verified. The community knows who you are — and you know who's here.
The Iqwat App
The community in your pocket.
iOS and Android. Free. Built by the community, for the community. KYC-verified accounts, the Kashmiri Pandit Jantri, KP Directory, KP Leaders, KP Matrimony, and the KP Family Tree (coming soon) — all in one place.
For three decades the Kashmiri Pandit community has been finding each other through phone-trees, WhatsApp groups, family weddings, and the occasional cultural society event. Iqwat replaces the phone-tree with a single platform — designed for a small, globally-scattered, culturally-rich community that needs to stay close.
The Iqwat app is a private, opt-in space. You join as a verified Kashmiri Pandit. You choose what you make visible. You meet the community on your own terms. The app is the same iqwat.com you are reading now — but optimised for the way your hands actually use phones.
Inside iqwat app
Six things every Pandit finally has in one place.
Kashmiri Pandit Jantri
The KP almanac, in your pocket. Tithi, vrat, festival dates, muhurat — the calendar that has guided us for centuries.
KP Family Tree
Find your gor, trace your gotra, map your lineage. Reconnect with cousins you've never met.
KP Directory
The global Pandit address book. Find a doctor in Toronto, a CA in Pune, a teacher in Jammu — anywhere we are.
KP Leaders
Discover the Pandits leading in business, scholarship, arts, public service — and learn from those who came before.
KP Matrimony
KP-only, gotra-aware, family-respected. Where parents, gor and grandparents are still part of the conversation.
· and much more on the way ·
iqwat in motion
Watch the app teaser.
I had stopped looking for the community.
Then a cousin sent me the app. Within a week I had found a job, a flatmate, and someone to cook Yakhni with. Iqwat is the address book my family had lost.
Our promise
Built like a community, not like a tech company.
Member-verified
Every member is verified as Kashmiri Pandit. No bots, no impostors, no general public.
Privacy-first
You choose what's public. Phone numbers, addresses, photos — opt-in always. Your data is never sold or used for advertising.
Free, forever
The app is free. The platform is funded by community donations, not advertising or premium tiers. Iqwat is a movement, not a startup.
Community-governed
Major changes go through community consultation. Iqwat is yours, in the deepest sense — not just a service you use.
