Devgad mango is Alphonso (Hapus) grown in Devgad taluka of Sindhudurg district on the Konkan coast. You can order Devgad mango online from AlphonsoMango.in by the dozen from Rs 1,849, in season from February to June, ripened on hay beds and delivered by Blue Dart.
What Devgad mango is
Devgad mango is the Alphonso variety grown around Devgad, a taluka in Sindhudurg district of Maharashtra. Devgad sits on the Konkan coast, the strip between the Arabian Sea and the Deccan plateau, south of Ratnagiri district. Locally the fruit is called Devgad Hapus. It is the same variety as Ratnagiri Alphonso, and both fall under GI No. 139.
Alphonso fruits generally weigh 150 to 300 g. The pulp is described as rich, creamy and non-fibrous. The variety is named after Afonso de Albuquerque, and mango grafting was introduced in Portuguese Goa by Jesuit missionaries; Indian-group mangoes are monoembryonic, so named varieties such as Alphonso are propagated by grafting rather than from seed.

Devgad mango and Ratnagiri mango: the honest difference
People ask which is better. We sell both, and our answer is that they are the same variety from two neighbouring districts, harvested the same way. Ratnagiri is a district; Devgad is a taluka in Sindhudurg district. We do not claim one is sweeter, earlier or better than the other, and we do not publish Brix comparisons between them. Pick the one your family knows, or order a dozen of each and compare at home.

What does differ is the label on the box and the product page you order from. Keep the two separate in your cart if you want to compare them, and note which box each fruit came from before you cut it. That is the only comparison that will tell you anything about your own taste.
Our page on Ratnagiri and Devgad Hapus covers the geography in more detail, and our Devgad Hapus guide is a shorter introduction.
Devgad mango price
Devgad Alphonso is sold by the dozen, and the price depends on the grade, which is the weight range of each fruit. It starts from Rs 1,849 per dozen on our Devgad Alphonso product page. A dozen weighs roughly 1.8 to 3.3 kg depending on grade. Check the product page for today's price, because supply and grade mix change through the season.
- Smaller grades for aamras, milkshakes and kulfi.
- Medium grades for slicing and daily eating.
- Largest grades for gifting, where a uniform box matters.
We do not quote a per-kilo rate for Devgad mango, because it is graded and sold by count. If a market stall quotes a rate by weight, ask which grade it covers before comparing. Our Devgad price guide explains the dozen pricing in full.
How Devgad mango is ripened
We do not use carbide. Our Alphonso mangoes are ripened naturally on hay beds. Mature fruit is laid on hay beds and ripens over several days. Calcium carbide is prohibited for ripening fruit in India under Regulation 2.3.5 of the Food Safety and Standards (Prohibition and Restrictions on Sales) Regulations, 2011. Ethylene up to 100 ppm is the permitted alternative. We are an FSSAI-licensed seller; the number is on our Brand Facts page.
Harvest to ripening of Alphonso takes about 15 days, so fruit is sent while still firm. Keep it at room temperature, away from direct sun, and check daily. A sweet smell near the stalk and a slight give near the shoulder are the usual signs. No home test proves how a mango was ripened; the bucket-of-water test is a rough clue, not proof. See our ripening guide.

Outside the season we do not sell fresh Devgad mango, because the trees give one crop a year. Anyone offering fresh Devgad Hapus in October should be asked where the fruit came from.
Out of season, the Alphonso Mango Pulp Tin is available all year in 850 g and 3.1 kg sizes from Rs 590. In season, Ratnagiri Alphonso sits next to Devgad on the mango collection, along with Kesar and Pairi.
