View product pageThe two Kesar boxes
There are two box sizes. The piece count is a range because Kesar mangoes vary in size from fruit to fruit.
| Box | Weight | Pieces | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small box | 1.4–1.6 kg | 4–6 | ₹999 |
| Larger box | 2.7–3 kg | 8–12 | ₹1,699 |
Choose the small box to try the variety or to send to one household. Choose the larger box for a family that eats mangoes daily. We do not convert box prices into per-kg rates, because weight and piece count both vary. Prices for the next season are confirmed when it opens. Current details are on the Kesar mango page.

Where Gir Kesar comes from
Gir Kesar is a Geographical Indication product, GI Tag No. 185, from Junagadh district in Gujarat, around the Girnar foothills, Gir and Talala. Every Kesar mango we sell comes from there. None comes from the Konkan, where Alphonso is grown.
Kesar is often called kesar keri in Gujarati. It is a different mango from Alphonso, with its own GI tag and growing region. A GI tag identifies the region and the product name; it does not describe the taste or the ripeness of a particular box. (Source: GI Registry of India.) The Kesar mango collection lists the current boxes.
Kesar or Alphonso, which box?
- Kesar suits larger families, shakes, milkshakes and everyday eating, and is sold by box weight.
- Alphonso is sold by the dozen in size bands. Ratnagiri and Devgad dozens started at ₹1,849 (150–180 g fruit) on 12 October 2026.
Some customers buy both. Compare them in the table further down this page or on the mangoes collection.

Brix range and quality testing
Testing. Powle Home Foods schedules weekly carbide and pesticide-residue testing from the 2027 season. The one third-party report published so far is from Envirocare Labs (NABL accredited), dated 5 April 2025, on an Alphonso sample from an export consignment: all 28 residues tested were within Codex limits. That report applies to that sample only; it is not a guarantee for other batches. Ask on WhatsApp which test records exist for the lot you are considering.
