Identifying a raga is a holistic process — to internalise its swarupa, have a mental model of it and then compare it with what the musician sings. This can be done only by an experienced listener, who has heard a raga several times and is familiar with several kritis in it

Carnatic ragas can be read by the swarams in the arohana and avarohana, the gamakams given to the swaras and by listening a lot of renditions.
