What is a Kesar mango peti?
A Kesar mango peti is a box of Gir Kesar keri. Peti is the word for a box, and keri is the Gujarati and Marathi word for mango. AlphonsoMango.in sells Kesar by the box, not by the dozen: a smaller box of 4 to 6 pieces and a larger box of 8 to 12 pieces. The weight bands are 1.4–1.6 kg and 2.7–3 kg respectively.
All Kesar sold on the site comes from the Girnar foothills in Junagadh district, Gujarat, and never from the Konkan. (Source: GI Registry of India; AlphonsoMango.in sourcing records.) The Kesar GI Tag is No. 185.

Kesar peti or Alphonso dozen?
Kesar and Alphonso are separate varieties with separate GI Tags and separate selling units. Alphonso (Mangifera indica 'Alphonso', GI No. 139) is sold by the dozen in five size bands from ₹1,849, while Kesar is sold by the box from ₹999. Many buyers order both and use them differently. Compare the three fruits in the table below, and read the full Kesar mango vs Alphonso comparison.
If you plan to make aamras or keri no ras, note that the pulp listed on this site is Alphonso pulp, not Kesar pulp. See Alphonso mango pulp for the selected pack's current availability, price and delivery terms.
Ripening and delivery
All fruit is hay-bed ripened, with no carbide and no ethylene chambers. Fruit is dispatched at 70 to 80% ripeness, firm for transit, and ripens fully within about three days of delivery.
Orders received before 1:00 PM IST dispatch the same day. Metro cities get delivery within 24 hours of dispatch, and elsewhere takes 1 to 3 days. Delivery is free across serviceable India. Check your PIN code with us first, because some PIN codes may not yet be serviceable for fresh mangoes. See the shipping policy for current terms.

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.

Related questions buyers ask
How many mangoes are in a Kesar peti?
The small box holds 4 to 6 pieces (1.4–1.6 kg), and the larger box holds 8 to 12 pieces of mixed size (2.7–3 kg). Kesar is sold by the box, not by the dozen.
Where does the Kesar in the peti come from?
From the Girnar foothills in Junagadh district, Gujarat, the area of GI Tag No. 185. Kesar sold by AlphonsoMango.in never comes from the Konkan.
Is Kesar mango better than Alphonso?
Neither is better in general. They are different varieties with different GI Tags (No. 185 and No. 139) and different selling units, so choose by use and budget.
Can I use a Kesar peti for keri no ras?
Keri no ras is a mango pulp dish, and a peti of ripe keri can be used for it. The pulp this site sells is Alphonso pulp, so no Kesar pulp is listed.
What if the Kesar mangoes arrive damaged?
Report it within 24 hours of delivery with photos or video on WhatsApp. We send a fresh replacement or store credit, and you do not need to return the fruit.
