Alphonso costs roughly ₹750 to ₹1,030 per kg of whole fruit, depending on size and pack: medium and extra large dozens sit lowest, small fruit highest. All per-kg figures here are approximate, worked from the declared weight per mango, because prices are quoted per dozen, not per kilo.

Why we price by dozen
A dozen is something you can count when the box arrives. A kilo of mangoes depends on a scale you do not own. So the price is per dozen, in five size grades, and each grade states a weight range per mango. Anyone who wants a per-kilo figure has to compute it, and this article does it for you, openly.
The method: multiply weight per mango by 12 (or 24) to get a box weight range, then divide the price by that range. The result is a range, not a point, because fruit inside a grade varies. That is why every number below is approximate.
Per kilo, dozen by dozen
| Size | Weight per mango | Box weight (12) | Price | Per kg (approx.) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Small | 150-180 g | 1.8-2.2 kg | ₹1,849 | ₹860-1,030 |
| Medium | 180-220 g | 2.2-2.6 kg | ₹2,099 | ₹800-970 |
| Large | 225-250 g | 2.7-3.0 kg | ₹2,499 | ₹830-930 |
| Extra large | 250-275 g | 3.0-3.3 kg | ₹2,699 | ₹820-900 |
| Jumbo | 275-300 g | 3.3-3.6 kg | ₹2,999 | ₹830-910 |
Small fruit is the cheapest per mango and the dearest per kilo. The middle sizes are the best value if you want the most fruit for the money.
Per kilo, two-dozen packs
| Size | Box weight (24) | Ratnagiri price | Per kg (approx.) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small | 3.6-4.3 kg | ₹3,499 | ₹810-970 |
| Medium | 4.3-5.3 kg | ₹3,999 | ₹760-930 |
| Large | 5.4-6.0 kg | ₹4,699 | ₹780-870 |
| Extra large | 6.0-6.6 kg | ₹4,999 | ₹760-830 |
| Jumbo | 6.6-7.2 kg | ₹5,399 | ₹750-820 |
Devgad large and jumbo two-dozen packs cost ₹4,749 and ₹5,499, a little more per kilo than Ratnagiri. A worked example. Two single medium dozens cost ₹4,198 for 4.3 to 5.3 kg, about ₹790 to ₹970 per kg. The two-dozen pack at ₹3,999 brings that to about ₹760 to ₹930. The saving is real but modest, ₹199.
Net weight versus whole fruit
Every figure above is whole-fruit weight. A mango includes skin and a stone, so the edible flesh is less than the weight on the scale. I will not quote a flesh percentage, because it varies with fruit and size and I do not have a figure I can stand behind. If you want to compare per kilo of flesh, weigh the flesh from one fruit at home; larger fruit generally has a larger share of flesh, but measure it.
Pulp tin and Gir Kesar compared
| Product | Weight | Price | Per kg (approx.) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Alphonso pulp tin | 850 g | ₹590 | ₹694 |
| Alphonso pulp tin | 3.1 kg | ₹2,100 | ₹677 |
| Gir Kesar box | 1.4-1.6 kg (4-6 pcs) | ₹999 | ₹625-715 |
| Gir Kesar box | 2.7-3.0 kg (8-12 pcs) | ₹1,699 | ₹565-630 |
These are different products, so the lowest number is not the best deal. Pulp is processed and its weight is edible pulp, so it is not a like-for-like comparison with whole fruit. Gir Kesar is a separate variety, sourced from Talala Gir in Junagadh district, Gujarat, with its own GI (GI Tag No. 185 covering Junagadh and Gir, as Brand Facts states). It is out of stock until the 2027 season; check the product page.
Carbide and quality
We do not use carbide. Our Alphonso mangoes are ripened naturally (on hay beds, as our FAQ states). Calcium carbide is prohibited for ripening fruit under Regulation 2.3.5 of the Food Safety and Standards (Prohibition and Restrictions on Sales) Regulations, 2011. It releases acetylene and can carry arsenic and phosphorus impurities. Controlled ethylene up to 100 ppm is permitted. A float test is only a rough clue; only a lab test proves it. A very low per-kilo price is a prompt to ask how the fruit was ripened.

Frequently asked questions
How much is Alphonso per kg?
Roughly ₹750 to ₹1,030 per kg of whole fruit, depending on size and pack. Prices are per dozen, so per-kilo figures are approximate, worked from the declared weight per mango.
Which size gives the best price per kg?
Medium and extra large dozens, and the two-dozen packs of larger sizes, sit lowest. Small fruit is cheapest per mango but dearest per kilo.
Why is per-kg pricing approximate?
Each grade is a weight range, so the box weight is a range too. Dividing the price by that range gives a range of per-kilo costs, not a single figure.
Is pulp cheaper than fresh fruit?
Per kilo, yes: about ₹677 to ₹694. But pulp is a processed product, and its weight is pulp, not whole fruit, so the comparison is not like for like.
What does Gir Kesar cost per kg?
About ₹565 to ₹715 per kg on the published box prices. It is a different variety and is out of stock until the 2027 season; check the product page.
Are the mangoes carbide-free?
Yes. We do not use carbide. Our Alphonso mangoes are ripened naturally on hay beds. Carbide is prohibited for ripening under FSSAI Regulation 2.3.5.
Is delivery included in these prices?
Yes. Delivery is free to serviceable PIN codes on every order, with no minimum. The checkout price is the full price.
