Immediate Response Team

Trained staff who arrive fast and take charge.

Immediate Response Team

Overview

The first hours after a death are the hardest. Decisions arrive faster than a grieving family can make them — who to call, what the hospital needs, where the body goes, which papers matter. Our Immediate Response Team exists so that no family has to work that out alone.

One call brings a trained Pitru Karma team member to you within the response time we commit on that call — within two hours across Chennai. From that moment they take charge of the practical burden: hospital formalities, transport, preservation, documentation and the sequence of what happens next, explained in plain language, step by step.

Who This Is For

A death at home
A death in a hospital or nursing home
Night-time and early-morning emergencies
Families with no elders to guide them
NRI families coordinating from abroad
Anyone unsure what to do first

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly does the team reach us?

We commit to a response time when you call. Across Chennai that is within two hours; outside the city it depends on your location and traffic, and we tell you honestly at the time of the call.

Are you available at night?

Yes. The Immediate Response Team is available 24×7, including nights, weekends and festival days.

What should we do before the team arrives?

Very little. Stay with your family. We will tell you on the call if anything needs to be done immediately, and the team handles the rest on arrival.

Does the team handle documentation as well?

Yes. We guide you through the death certificate, collect the crematorium certificate, support the doctor's certificate and coordinate with police where applicable.

My SIL passed away @1.15am.. We didn't expect that this would happen in the wee hrs of the morning.. we didn't know how to proceed on her cremation..I just called Pitru karma Mr. Srikkanth.. He picked up my call @ 1.25am.. that's all..things started unfolding as if everything was preplanned.. The service was so good that I can confidently recommend their service to anyone..I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to Mr.Srikkant for his service till creation and thereafter at a reasonable cost

We used Pitrukarma ritual services for my dad's 13 day funeral services and all monthly karmas remotely. Its been a very useful and convenient experience. I felt all the Vedic procedures were followed and felt satisfied with the procedures. I highly recommend any NRI or busy Indian professional to make use of the services in their time of need.
