Milan, Rajdhani, Starline, Gali & Desawar: What's the Difference?
Same app, same wallet, different rhythms. Here's how Milan and Rajdhani's day/night sessions differ from Starline's two morning slots — and why Gali and Desawar are two markets on two clocks, not one.
7xBoss runs several Matka-family markets side by side, and they don't all work the same way. If you've only played Kalyan, the others can look unfamiliar — not because the app changes, but because each market has its own draw rhythm. Here's what actually differs.
Milan and Rajdhani: open and close, just like Kalyan
Milan and Rajdhani are both true Matka markets, same family as Kalyan — each one declares an open result and a close result, and the day's jodi is the two combined. Each runs as a separate Day and Night market (Milan Day, Milan Night, Rajdhani Day, Rajdhani Night), and all four are markets in their own right with their own numbers. Timing is not always what separates them: Milan Day and Rajdhani Day run the identical window, both opening at 3:00 PM and closing at 5:00 PM, so an afternoon bid is a choice of which market's result to play rather than of a later draw — while Milan Night and Rajdhani Night genuinely do run at different times. Bid types — single, jodi, panna, sangam — work exactly as they do on Kalyan, and the how-to-play basics carry straight over.
Starline: two morning slots, one draw each
Starline is a different shape entirely. Instead of one market with an open and close, each Starline slot is its own market with a single draw, not a session of a bigger market — and there are exactly two of them, both before lunch: 09:00 AM and 10:30 AM. Pick whichever slot's timing suits you, place a single or panna bid on it, and it settles once. There's no close to wait for, and neither a jodi nor a sangam bet, because both are built from an open-and-close pair that a single-draw slot doesn't have.
Gali and Desawar: two markets, one number each
Gali and Desawar get named in one breath, but they are two separate markets on two different clocks: Gali draws at 11:00 PM, Desawar at 5:00 AM the next morning. Each declares a single two-digit jodi once a day — no open, no close, no panna breakdown. In the app you play that jodi directly: a straight Jodi on the exact two digits, or Red Jodi and Family Jodi to cover a whole group at once. Either way there's still only the one number drawn per market.
Same app, same wallet, different clocks
- Deposits, withdrawals and your wallet balance work identically across every market.
- Betting closes a few minutes before each market's own draw — check the specific market's timing before you bid.
- Payout rates are shown live in the app for the exact bet type and market you're placing, since rates can differ between games.
“The mechanics differ, but the discipline shouldn't: know a market's timing before you bid, and never chase a result you missed the cut-off for.”
