It started with a simple question: “Where is the best place to get authentic Mangalorean fish curry near Hampankatta?” The answer involved calling five different people and still not being sure.
We realised that despite having some of the most vibrant local businesses, extraordinary temples, world-class hospitals, and stunning sightseeing spots — the Tulunadu region had no single trusted place to find them all.
So we built one. Tuluva is Tulunadu’s first dedicated local listing directory — covering all 13 essential categories across Udupi, Mangalore, and Kasaragod districts. Every listing is personally reviewed by our local team to ensure accuracy and trustworthiness.
Today, Tuluva connects thousands of locals with the businesses, services, and places that make this region extraordinary.
Four principles that guide everything we do at Tuluva.
🎯
👁️
A Tulunadu where every local business is easily discoverable and every resident can find exactly what they need, right in their district.
💖
Local-first thinking, unwavering accuracy, cultural respect, and genuine community service — in everything we build and curate.
🌱
Every listing is verified. Every category is comprehensive. Every feature is designed to make local life in Tulunadu easier and better.
Generic directories treat Mangalore the same as Mumbai. We don’t. Tuluva is built from the ground up for the specific culture, geography, and needs of Tulunadu.
We only cover Udupi, Mangalore & Kasaragod. That means deeper listings, more accurate info, and a team that actually knows the streets, temples, and neighbourhoods we feature.
Our local team personally verifies listings. Not bots. Not crowdsourced chaos. Real people who know Tulunadu ensuring every detail is accurate and current.
We understand the difference between a GSB restaurant and a Bunt-run hotel. We list government offices in Tulu Nadu’s native context. We celebrate Yakshagana festivals the way they deserve.
From temples to tech jobs, from real estate to “post your need” — we cover every dimension of daily life that matters to the people of Tulunadu.
Beyond just listing — we help local businesses get enquiries, book calls, and showcase themselves to thousands of potential customers actively searching in their area.
We never add a listing we haven’t verified. The trust of our users is our most valuable asset — we protect it fiercely.
Tuluva exists to serve the community. Revenue follows when we serve people well — not the other way around.
We celebrate the Tulu Nadu identity — our language, our festivals, our unique cuisine, and our spirit of enterprise.
Tulunadu keeps growing. We keep improving. New categories, better tools, and richer listings — always.
Free to browse for all. Affordable to list for businesses. Tuluva must be accessible to everyone in our community.
No paid rankings. No hidden promotions. A business is featured because it’s good — nothing else.
List your business, discover new places, or simply explore the richness of Udupi,
Dakshina Kannada & Kasaragod with Tuluva as your guide.
