In the Sattamatka ecosystem, while many beginners start by looking at single digits (Ank) or two-digit pairs (Jodi), the Panel Number (also commonly referred to as Patti or Panna) forms an important part of the overall draw system.
Whether you are studying historical charts on primary portals like dpboss or filling out a handwritten diary for markets such as Kalyan or Main Bazar, understanding what a Panel Number is and how it is presented can help readers follow matka charts more systematically.
Definition of a Panel Number
A Panel Number is a three-digit combination drawn during either the Open or Close session of a market line.
Every complete session result contains two separate Panel numbers: an Open Panel and a Close Panel. In the standard result string notation (138 – 25 – 249), 138 is the Open Panel and 249 is the Close Panel.
The central single digit (Ank) of any session is derived directly from its Panel number through modular addition:
$$\text{Panel: } 1-3-8 \implies 1 + 3 + 8 = 12 \implies \text{Single Ank: } \mathbf{2}$$
$$\text{Panel: } 2-4-9 \implies 2 + 4 + 9 = 15 \implies \text{Single Ank: } \mathbf{5}$$
Combining the Open Ank (2) and Close Ank (5) yields the central two-digit Jodi: 25.
The Three Types of Panel Numbers
Panel combinations are classified into three distinct categories based on whether their digits repeat:
Types of Panel Numbers:
[ Single Panna ] [ Double Panna ] [ Triple Panna ]
Three Unique Digits Two Identical Digits Three Identical Digits
e.g., 1-3-8 e.g., 2-2-5 e.g., 4-4-4
-
Single Panna (SP): Consists of three completely unique digits (e.g., 138, 249, 357). Out of the 220 total possible panel combinations in the system, 120 are Single Pannas.
-
Double Panna (DP): Contains two identical digits and one unique digit (e.g., 225, 114, 778). There are 90 possible Double Panna combinations.
-
Triple Panna (TP / Motor Patti): Consists of three identical digits (e.g., 111, 444, 999). There are only 10 possible Triple Panna combinations (from 000 to 999).
The Ascending Formatting Rule
A strict, universal formatting rule applied across all official result boards on dpboss is that the digits of a Panel number are always arranged in ascending order (from smallest to largest):
-
Correct Presentation: 138 ($1 < 3 < 8$), 225 ($2 \le 2 < 5$).
-
Incorrect Presentation: You will never see a Panel published as 831 or 522.
Even if physical draw cards fall in random sequence, result databases automatically reorder them from lowest to highest before recording them on public panel charts.

Healthy Discipline for Panel Homework
-
Focus on Panel Addition, Not High Multipliers: While predicting exact Panel numbers offers high payout multipliers, guessing three exact digits carries steep mathematical odds. Use Panel charts primarily to study addition sums and cut-digit relationships on paper.
-
Log Full Panels in Your Diary: Always write the complete Panel string (138 – 25 – 249) in your notebook rather than just the central Jodi. This preserves the underlying arithmetic needed to track weekly trends.
-
Keep Play Limits Very Small: Treat chart reading purely as a casual, zero-stress mathematical hobby. Keep your daily spending limit tiny—equivalent to spare change for a daily cup of tea—and never cross it.
-
Protect Household Money: Keep room rent, grocery cash, school fees, and family savings 100% untouched and completely safe at all times.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is a Panel number also called a Patti or Panna?
These terms are regional synonyms used across India. “Panel,” “Patti,” and “Panna” all refer to the exact same three-digit combination drawn during a session.
How many total Panel combinations exist in Matka?
There are exactly 220 possible Panel combinations (120 Single Pannas + 90 Double Pannas + 10 Triple Pannas) when digits are arranged in ascending order.
How does a Panel number create a Single Ank?
The three digits of the Panel are added together. If the total is a double-digit number (like 12), the last unit digit (2) becomes the Single Ank.
Where can players view full multi-week Panel charts for free?
Complete historical Panel sheets for all major day and night market lines are published free for public viewing on primary result portals like dpboss.
