An Akshaya Tritiya mango gift box is best planned early. Choose a dozen Alphonso for the recipient, order on our website while the season runs, and check the PIN code at checkout. Dozens start from Rs 1,849. We cannot promise a delivery date.
This article is about one thing: choosing and ordering a mango gift for Akshaya Tritiya, an auspicious day that falls in April or May. It is not a general festival guide. For other occasions, see our mango gifts by occasion. For box types and budgets, see mango gift box and hamper ideas and the note on budget per person. Prices below are "from" prices and can change; check the product page for the current price.
Why mango suits Akshaya Tritiya
Akshaya Tritiya is widely regarded as an auspicious day for new beginnings, purchases and giving. It falls in April or May, which is the middle of the mango season, so the first Alphonso of the year is often on the table around then. In many Maharashtrian homes, aamras and mango are part of the festival meal. Customs differ between families and regions, so treat this as a general pattern and follow your own family's practice.
For a gift, that makes fresh Alphonso (Hapus) a natural choice: seasonal, familiar and easy to share. A dozen can be split among a household, or kept for aamras.
What to send for Akshaya Tritiya
- One dozen of Ratnagiri Alphonso or Devgad Alphonso. The standard gift for parents, in-laws, a host or a neighbour. A dozen weighs roughly 1.8 to 3.3 kg depending on grade.
- Kesar by the box. A lower-budget option with a different taste and style.
- A larger grade from the order-online page. For an elder in the family or someone you want to honour.
- Mango extras. Amba Poli and Amba Modak are listed as separate products, as are freeze-dried Alphonso cubes, which keep longer than fresh fruit. Each is its own order.
- Alphonso pulp tins. Pulp tins are available all year and suit aamras, whatever the date of your gift.
What an Akshaya Tritiya mango gift box costs
| Option | From | Suits |
|---|---|---|
| Kesar, per box | Rs 999 | A smaller gift, a different taste |
| Alphonso, Ratnagiri or Devgad, per dozen | Rs 1,849 | Parents, hosts, close family |
| Pairi, 1 dozen | Rs 2,799 | Someone who prefers this variety |
| Larger Alphonso grades | Up to Rs 5,399 for the largest Ratnagiri option; up to Rs 10,499 for the largest order-online listing | Elders, special gifts |
| Alphonso pulp tins (850 g and 3.1 kg) | Rs 590 | Gifting outside the fresh season |
Two boxes both called "a dozen" can differ in price because the grade differs. Read the grade on the product page, and confirm the total at checkout before paying.
Planning around the festival
Fresh mangoes cannot be rushed. Fresh Alphonso is harvested about February to June, with the best supply from March to May, and our 2027 season opens on 1 February 2027. Akshaya Tritiya falls inside that window, but the fruit available in a given week depends on the harvest, so do not leave the order for the last day.
- Order ahead. Place the order well before the festival, not in the last few days. Orders can be placed on the website at any hour, but that is not a delivery promise.
- Check the PIN code. We dispatch by Blue Dart, and about 65% of Indian PIN codes get next-day delivery. Check your PIN code at checkout.
- Pick a day someone is home. Tell the recipient to expect the box.
- No date promise. We cannot promise delivery on a particular day, because it depends on the dispatch day, the courier and the PIN code. If you need a date, write to us through the gift enquiry form before you order.
- If something arrives damaged, report it within 24 hours of delivery through the contact page.
Who to gift, and how much
A simple rule: one dozen for a household, a larger grade for an elder or a person you want to honour, and a smaller Kesar box for a lighter gesture. Do not send more than a household can finish in a few days.
