In order to work with sargam, use the following table to translate Indian classical music notes:

Music noteSargam

Note: Madhyam is the only note which is represented by a lowercase character.

Saptak

The * is use to highlight mandar or tar saptak. If it comes before a note, for example *S, this is a mandar saptak Sa(or Shadaj). If it’s comes after a note, for example S*, it’s a tar saptak Sa.

Space

Seperate each note with empty space.
