Alphonso mango in Delhi: what Delhi buyers ask us
Delhi is a long way from the Konkan coast, and the questions we hear from Delhi reflect that. Buyers want to know where the fruit grew, whether the box will survive the journey north, and how to tell real Alphonso from the many mangoes that are sold under the name. This page answers those three questions for Delhi addresses, from Dwarka to Gurgaon and Noida.
We are Powle Home Foods in Mumbai, and we run AlphonsoMango.in. Our fruit is sourced across 48 villages of the Ratnagiri and Devgad belt. We started selling offline in 2019 and online in 2020, and we have served 47,000+ customers, including offline and marketplace sales. Alphonso does not grow in Delhi, so a box that reaches you has travelled from the west coast. That is true of every Alphonso sold in the city, whichever shop or app sells it.
Ratnagiri or Devgad Alphonso for a Delhi home
Both are the same variety, grown in two parts of the Konkan coast. Ratnagiri is a district, and Devgad is a taluka in Sindhudurg district. We do not say that one is sweeter or ripens earlier, and we do not rank them. Delhi families often order one dozen of each, put them side by side at home, and settle on a favourite for the next order.
| Question | Ratnagiri Alphonso | Devgad Alphonso |
|---|---|---|
| Where it grew | Ratnagiri district, Konkan | Devgad taluka, Sindhudurg district, Konkan |
| Sold by | The dozen | The dozen |
| Starting price | From Rs 1,849 per dozen | From Rs 1,849 per dozen |
| Product page | Ratnagiri Alphonso boxes | Devgad Hapus by the dozen |
The largest Ratnagiri option goes up to Rs 5,399. Fruit size changes the price, and Alphonso fruit generally weighs 150 to 300 g. We do not give a per-kilogram price, because we sell by the dozen. Check the product page for the current price, because prices can change.
Delivery to Delhi and the NCR
We dispatch by Blue Dart, and about 65% of Indian PIN codes get next-day delivery. Check your PIN code at checkout. We do not promise a delivery day for Delhi or for any other named place. Delhi has many PIN codes, and the NCR towns around it have their own, so the only reliable check is the one at checkout.
- Use the exact PIN code of your colony or society, not a nearby one.
- Add the tower, block or gate details, since large Delhi societies can be hard to find.
- Give a phone number that you will answer, because the courier may call before the visit.
- Ask your gate staff to accept the box and bring it indoors, and do not leave a fruit box in the sun.
For the neighbouring cities, we have separate pages on Alphonso mango in Gurgaon and online mango delivery in Noida. Our mango price in Delhi guide compares the kinds of mangoes you will see in the city.
If anything is damaged, report it to us within 24 hours of delivery. Open the box on the day it arrives, so that you can look at each fruit while the delivery is fresh in everyone's mind.
Ripening a box in a Delhi home
Delhi rooms can be warm for much of the season, and warmth speeds ripening. Keep the box in the coolest, shaded room you have, out of direct sun and away from a hot kitchen. Check the fruit every day, because fruit in a warm room can go from firm to soft faster than you expect. Do not put firm fruit in the fridge. Once a mango is soft and fragrant, you can refrigerate it for a short while.
Wikipedia notes that Alphonso takes about 15 days from harvest to ripening, so a box that arrives firm still has some way to go. This is normal for fruit that has to travel. Our guide to ripening Alphonso mangoes at home covers the stages, from firm to fragrant to ready.
How to check that your Alphonso is genuine
A city as large as Delhi has Alphonso from many routes, so it is fair to ask every seller the same short list of questions. A seller who answers plainly is easier to trust than one who relies on a label.
- Which district did it grow in? Ratnagiri or Devgad is a clear answer. "Konkan" or "Hapus" alone is not.
- Who holds the GI papers? Ask for the authorised user number. Ours is AU/5974/GI/139/260 (GI No. 139), listed on our Brand Facts page.
- How was it ripened? Selling fruit ripened with calcium carbide gas is prohibited in India under Regulation 2.3.5 of the Food Safety and Standards (Prohibition and Restrictions on Sales) Regulations, 2011. We do not use carbide. Our Alphonso mangoes are ripened naturally on hay beds.
- How many fruits, and what size? A dozen is 12 fruits.
No home test proves how a mango was ripened, and a bucket of water only gives a rough clue. Our Alphonso mango GI tag guide explains what the tag covers, and our guide to identifying authentic Hapus mango lists more clues.
Gifts, weddings and offices in Delhi
Many Delhi orders are gifts. A dozen sent to a relative, a few boxes for a family function, or a set of boxes for an office are all common. Enter the recipient's address and PIN code at checkout, so that the PIN code check covers the delivery address and not yours. If you plan a large order, write to us before you buy, with the quantity, the areas and the dates, and we will tell you what is possible. We also supply restaurants and hotels.
We have more on gifting in our corporate gift Alphonso mango article. For a gift, think about when the recipient will be home, because a firm box needs a few days to ripen and is best opened by someone who can look after it.
Season, and what to buy between seasons
Alphonso is harvested about February to June, with the best supply from March to May. The 2027 season opens on 1 February 2027. Outside the season we do not sell fresh Alphonso, and the fresh mango listings stay closed until the new crop.
Between seasons, our Alphonso mango pulp tin is available all year in 850 g and 3.1 kg sizes from Rs 590. It is not a swap for a fresh dozen, but it works for aamras, milkshakes and desserts. If you also like Kesar, our Kesar mango boxes comes in a half dozen at Rs 999 and a dozen at Rs 1,699. We make no GI claim for Kesar.

How our mangoes are grown and ripened
Naturally grown. Naturally ripened. Checked with science. AlphonsoMango.in fruit comes from family orchards and 120+ partner farmers in 80+ villages along the Konkan coast, each near the sea or an estuary.
- Naturally grown, not certified organic: our farming SOP allows no synthetic fertiliser and no chemical pesticide. Farmers use farm-made inputs such as jeevamrutha, panchagavya and neem extract.
- Hand harvested before dawn: picked with a Nutan pole; trees are never shaken.
- Checked twice: 15 to 20% of fruit is rejected at the orchard and a further 18 to 20% after ripening.
- Naturally ripened on hay beds: no calcium carbide, ever, and no ethylene gas added.
- Residue-tested: by an independent NABL lab, within Codex limits.
