Order Alphonso Mangoes for Kolkata Delivery

Both varieties carry GI No. 139. Both are dispatched at 70–80% ripeness — firm enough for transit, fully ripe within about three days of delivery.

Ratnagiri vs Devgad: Which Should You Order?

Feature	Ratnagiri Alphonso	Devgad Alphonso
GI Tag	GI No. 139 (AU/5974)	GI No. 139 (AU/6932)
Season	February–June (peak March–May)	February–June (peak March–May)
Brix at full ripeness	18–24°	18–24° (typically upper end)
Fruit weight (by grade)	150–300 g (Small to Jumbo)	150–300 g (Small to Jumbo)
Price range	₹1,849 to ₹5,399	₹1,849 to ₹5,499
Who tends to order it	North India leans Ratnagiri (from our repeat-order data)	Mumbai leans Devgad — sea-facing orchards, slightly richer pulp
Available sizes	Half dozen, 1 dozen, 2 dozen	Half dozen, 1 dozen, 2 dozen

Kolkata leans toward Ratnagiri in our order data — the firmer pulp holds better through the transit east. If you want the highest Brix and slightly more aromatic pulp, choose Devgad. Both are from orchards 12–25 years old, selected by Prashant Powle for Brix consistency and alternate-bearing management.

Delivery to Kolkata — Transit, Packaging and Ripening

Courier is BlueDart, Delhivery, Ekart or XpressBees depending on your Kolkata pin code. Orders placed before 12 noon IST (Monday to Saturday) are dispatched the same day. Delivery takes 1 to 3 days for most PIN codes and 1 to 2 days to most metros, depending on your PIN code. Fresh mangoes are delivered by Blue Dart to more than 4,700 PIN codes. We dispatch at 70–80% ripeness — firm, saffron-yellow skin, not yet soft — so the fruit finishes ripening naturally on your counter over the next three days.

The box is a 5-ply corrugated fibreboard (CFB) carton, 130 gsm, with a 12-slot partition that takes the transit pressure so the fruit does not. Every mango sits in a foam-net sleeve (flat width 50–55 mm, length 100–120 mm by fruit size) on a hay bed. Six air holes top and bottom keep condensation from building up — important for an east-bound journey through higher ambient humidity. Alphonso lenticels blacken when rubbed; the foam net prevents exactly that.

If fruit arrives transit-damaged or quality-failed, photograph or video it and send to us on WhatsApp within 24 hours of delivery. No physical return is needed. We either dispatch a fresh replacement or credit your account for the next order. That 24-hour window is strict — after that, natural softening is expected, not damage.

What if the mangoes arrive unripe?

Keep them at room temperature, not in the fridge. Three days is the standard window. If they are still hard after four days, that is a transit issue — send us a photo on WhatsApp within 24 hours of delivery and we resolve it.

How to Order

1. Step 1 — Select grade and quantity: Choose Ratnagiri (₹1,849 to ₹5,399) or Devgad (₹1,849 to ₹5,499) and your box size — half dozen, 1 dozen or 2 dozen — on the product page.

3. Step 3 — Dispatch: Your order goes via BlueDart, Delhivery, Ekart or XpressBees depending on pin code. Orders placed before 12 noon IST (Monday to Saturday) are dispatched the same day. Delivery takes 1 to 3 days for most PIN codes and 1 to 2 days to most metros, depending on your PIN code. Fresh mangoes are delivered by Blue Dart to more than 4,700 PIN codes.

Where the Fruit Comes From

We source from 48 villages across Ratnagiri and Devgad. On the Devgad side: Devgad, Jamsande, Vijaydurg, Dahibav, Hindale, Naringre, Girye, Rameshwar, Kunkeshwar — all within a narrow coastal belt where laterite soil and sea-facing exposure concentrate the sugars. On the Ratnagiri side: Pawas, Golap, Nachane, Mavalange, Waravade, Purnagad, Ambeshet, Mirya, Kasheli and others across Ratnagiri, Rajapur, Lanja and Mandangad talukas.

Prashant Powle built the sourcing network from 2017. We now work with 100+ partner farmer families. Selection is based on one thing: Brix consistency across the season, not just at the season's peak.

Harvest is done by hand using a Nutan/Zela pole with a catching net and cutting mechanism. The tree is never shaken. Fruit never falls. For tall trees, an indigenously developed length-extending pole fitted with a camera locates ripe fruit before the cutter goes in. From tree to our Ratnagiri or Devgad packhouse takes about two hours. From packhouse to Mumbai — in an air-conditioned vehicle — takes 10–12 hours. The total harvest-to-dispatch window is 48–72 hours.

How We Ripen the Mangoes

Natural hay-bed (Aadi) ripening only, in temperature-controlled rooms. No ethylene chambers, no calcium carbide, no artificial ripening agents of any kind. The 24–48 hours at the Mumbai packhouse is monitored natural ripening on hay — not gas-triggered.

We also do a controlled hot-water treatment after harvest to reduce surface issues and extend shelf life. Then post-harvest cooling before transport. The sequence matters: cooling first keeps the pulp from thermal stress; then the slow hay-bed ripening at the packhouse develops the aroma and sugar gradient evenly through the fruit rather than just at the skin.

Every fruit is weighed and graded. AI/ML-assisted machine scanning checks each mango for internal issues (spongy tissue) and external deformities before packing. Grades run from Small (150–180 g) through Medium (180–225 g), Extra Large (250–275 g) and Jumbo (275–300 g).

We are not carbide-free in a lab-certified sense — our pesticide residue panel by Envirocare Labs (NABL accredited, certificate TC-8284, report 01/ETHAP2500044, issued 5 April 2025) tests 28 residues, not calcium carbide. All 28 residues are within Codex maximum residue limits; 27 of 28 are below the limit of quantification (0.01 mg/kg). Thiamethoxam was detected at 0.013 mg/kg against a Codex limit of 0.2 mg/kg. So: independently tested, all residues within Codex limits — and we ripen with hay, not carbide.

Nutrition and What the Tests Actually Show

Ripe Alphonso pulp contains roughly 30–36 mg of vitamin C per 100 g. A 100 g serving meets about 40–45% of the ICMR-NIN 2020 RDA for adult men (80 mg/day) and about 50% for adult women (65 mg/day). Mangiferin, a polyphenol in Alphonso pulp, showed anti-inflammatory activity in a 2011 cell study by Govindappa et al. — it is a cell study, not a clinical trial, so interpret it accordingly.

The Brix range at full ripeness is 18–24°. Devgad fruit typically sits toward 24°; early-season Ratnagiri can be closer to 18–20°. Both are measurably sweeter than most market mangoes, which are often harvested at lower Brix and ripened with carbide — a process that pushes colour development faster than sugar development.

Alphonso puree is suitable for babies from about 6 months as a serving suggestion. Keep that as a parental decision, not medical advice.

Season Window and When Fruit Is Not Available

Season runs February to June, with peak supply March to May. We do not sell fresh Alphonso from July to January — there is no fruit to sell. Anyone offering "fresh Alphonso" outside this window is either selling cold-stored fruit or mislabelling a different variety.

The 2027 mango season starts on 1 February 2027, and fresh mangoes are out of stock until then.

We have exported to the US, UK, UAE, Singapore and Japan.

How much does 1 kg of mango cost?

GI-certified Ratnagiri Alphonso from alphonsomango.in starts at ₹1,849 for a half dozen box, depending on fruit grade and box size; see the current price on the product page. Local Kolkata market prices for non-certified mangoes are lower, but variety, origin and GI authentication account for the difference in price.

Devgad Alphonso is priced similarly, from ₹1,849 to ₹5,499 depending on grade and quantity.

Which mango is famous in Kolkata?

Himsagar and Langra are the mangoes Kolkata has historically prized most — both grown in West Bengal and neighbouring states. Alphonso from Ratnagiri, though not local to Bengal, has a strong following in Kolkata for its 18–24° Brix sweetness, saffron pulp and GI certification, and Ratnagiri Alphonso is the variety Kolkata buyers lean toward in our repeat-order data.
