Ratnagiri vs Devgad: Which Mango Fruit?
| Feature | Ratnagiri Alphonso | Devgad Alphonso |
|---|---|---|
| GI Certification | GI No. 139, AU/5974/GI/139/260 | GI No. 139, AU/6932 |
| Season Window | February–June (peak March–May) | February–June (peak March–May) |
| Brix at Full Ripeness | 18–24° | 18–24° (typically upper end) |
| Fruit Weight (by grade) | 150–275 g and above | 150–275 g and above |
| Flavour Profile | Bright, citrus-forward sweetness | Deeper, richer sweetness; creamier pulp |
| Price Range | ₹1,849 to ₹5,399 | ₹1,849 to ₹5,499 |
| Buyer Preference (our data) | North India leans Ratnagiri | Mumbai buyers lean Devgad |
| Box Options | Half dozen, 1 dozen, 2 dozen | Half dozen, 1 dozen, 2 dozen |
The Brix question comes up constantly: both varieties test 18–24° at full ripeness, with Devgad fruit typically sitting at the upper end of that range. We assumed Ratnagiri would dominate all markets when we started 2017 — the repeat-order data proved otherwise. Mumbai buyers consistently reorder Devgad at a higher rate.
Delivery Across India
Fruit is dispatched at 70–80% ripeness — firm enough to survive transit, ripe within about three days of reaching you. The 5-ply corrugated box (130 gsm, alternate flute) has a 12-slot partition that absorbs courier pressure so the fruit doesn't have to. Each mango sits in a foam-net sleeve (flat width 50–55 mm, length 100–120 mm) on a hay bed. Six air holes on the top and base keep moisture from building up inside.
Orders placed before 12 noon IST (Monday to Saturday) are dispatched the same day. Delivery takes 1 to 3 days for most PIN codes and 1 to 2 days to most metros, depending on your PIN code. Fresh mangoes are delivered by Blue Dart to more than 4,700 PIN codes.
We do not ship fresh Alphonso mango fruit from July to January. The orchards don't produce then. Any site that offers "fresh Alphonso" outside February–June is selling something other than what it claims.
How to Order
- Select your variety and grade. Choose Ratnagiri (₹1,849 to ₹5,399) or Devgad Alphonso (₹1,849 to ₹5,499). Grades run Small (150–180 g), Medium (180–225 g), Extra Large (250–275 g) and Jumbo (275–300 g). Pick the box size — half dozen, 1 dozen or 2 dozen.
- Add to cart and complete checkout. Ordering opens when the 2027 season starts on 1 February 2027. Fresh mangoes are out of stock until then. An order can be cancelled only before dispatch.
- Your box ships via BlueDart, Delhivery, Ekart or XpressBees depending on your pin code. If any fruit arrives damaged, send photos or a video on WhatsApp within 24 hours — no physical return is needed and we dispatch a fresh replacement or credit your account.
Where These Mangoes Come From
We source from 48 coastal villages across Ratnagiri and Devgad. In Devgad taluka alone that includes Devgad, Jamsande, Vijaydurg, Dahibav, Girye, Kunkeshwar and Mithbav, among others. In Ratnagiri taluka: Pawas, Golap, Nachane, Mirya, Majgaon and Kasheli. Further villages in Rajapur, Lanja and Mandangad talukas add Anjarle, Velneshwar and Velas to the network.
Our 100-plus partner farmer families manage orchards that are typically 12–25 years old and face the Arabian Sea. Tree age matters: older Alphonso trees produce fruit with more concentrated sugars. Prashant Powle selects orchards on three criteria — Brix consistency across the season, tree longevity, and how the farmer manages alternate-bearing years. A tree that gives too heavily one year and barely at all the next is not a reliable source.
How the Fruit Leaves the Tree
We never shake the tree. Harvest uses a Nutan/Zela pole fitted with a catching net and a cutting mechanism at the top. For taller trees, an indigenously developed length-extending pole with a camera attachment lets the harvester see the stem before cutting. Every mango is caught before it can touch the ground. Bruising at harvest is the single biggest cause of spongy tissue downstream — preventing it starts at the moment of picking, not at the packhouse.
After harvest, fruit moves to the Ratnagiri or Malvan/Devgad packing centre, undergoes a hot-water post-harvest treatment to reduce surface issues, then travels to Mumbai in an air-conditioned vehicle within 10–12 hours.
How the Fruit Ripens
The 24–48 hours at our Mumbai packhouse is natural ripening on hay — monitored, temperature-controlled, not gas-triggered. No ethylene chambers. No calcium carbide. No artificial ripening agents of any kind. This method is called Aadi ripening in Konkan, and it is the only method we use.
Carbide and pesticide-residue testing happens weekly through the season at Envirocare Labs Pvt. Ltd., Thane (NABL accredited, certificate TC-8284). An independent panel (certificate 01/ETHAP2500044, issued 5 April 2025) tested 28 residues — 27 of 28 were below the limit of quantification at 0.01 mg/kg. Thiamethoxam registered at 0.013 mg/kg against a Codex maximum of 0.2 mg/kg. We say independently tested, all residues within Codex limits. We do not say pesticide-free, because one residue was detected within limits.
Before packing, every fruit passes through AI/ML-assisted machine scanning for internal defects (spongy tissue) and external deformities. It is also hand-weighed and graded. A Jumbo (275–300 g) and a Small (150–180 g) never ship in the same box — consistent sizing means consistent ripening inside the box during transit.
Nutrition in Alphonso Mango Fruit
Ripe Alphonso pulp contains roughly 30–36 mg of vitamin C per 100 g. That meets about 40–45% of the ICMR-NIN 2020 recommended daily allowance for adult men (80 mg/day) and about 50% for adult women (65 mg/day), in a single 100 g serving. Mangiferin, the polyphenol concentrated in Alphonso pulp, showed anti-inflammatory activity in cell studies (Govindappa et al., 2011).
Alphonso puree is also suitable as a first fruit for babies from about six months — we note this as a serving suggestion, not medical advice. Talk to your paediatrician.
Season and Availability
Fresh Alphonso mango fruit is only available February to June. Peak season is March to May. Outside those months, we stock Aamras, mango pulp, cashews, dates and saffron — but not fresh mangoes. There is no off-season fresh Alphonso. When the orchards stop, we stop.
The 2025 season was difficult. Prashant Powle was interviewed by The Economic Times in June 2026 on the weather pressures and yield crisis facing GI-certified Alphonso growers. The 2027 mango season starts on 1 February 2027, and fresh mangoes are out of stock until then. Demand from our 47,000-plus customers routinely outpaces supply in peak weeks.
Ratnagiri Alphonso won the Gold Medal at the national One District One Product (ODOP) Awards 2024. That is a district-product recognition, not an award to AlphonsoMango.in specifically — but it confirms the standing of the fruit we source.
Our repeat-customer rate is 46%. The average customer reorders 2.8 boxes in a season. We read that as evidence that the fruit delivers on what the order page promises.

People Also Ask
What are the benefits of eating mangos?
Mango gives you vitamin C, fibre, folate, potassium, and plant compounds like mangiferin. A 100 g serving of ripe Alphonso pulp contains roughly 30–36 mg vitamin C — about 40–45% of the ICMR-NIN 2020 daily requirement for adult men. Fibre supports digestion and the natural sugars provide quick, steady energy without refined additives.
Alphonso fruit from 12–25-year-old sea-facing orchards in Ratnagiri and Devgad reaches a Brix of 18–24° at full ripeness, which means concentrated nutrients alongside the flavour.
Is it okay to eat a mango every day?
Yes, for most adults one mango a day is fine during the season. It supplies fibre, vitamin C, folate, and potassium in a single fruit. The natural sugars come packaged with fibre, which slows absorption. People managing diabetes or fructose sensitivity should check with their doctor about portion size.
Alphonso season runs February to June — eating one daily during those months is a straightforward way to get seasonal fruit at peak nutritional density.
Do mangoes have a lot of sugar?
A medium mango contains natural sugars — mainly fructose, glucose, and sucrose — alongside fibre, which slows how quickly that sugar enters the bloodstream. This is different from the free sugars in processed food. Ripe Alphonso pulp at 18–24° Brix is sweet, but the fibre matrix moderates the glycaemic effect compared with drinking mango juice.
If you are watching sugar intake, a half-dozen Alphonso eaten over several days across the season is a reasonable way to enjoy the fruit without overdoing portions.
Are there any downsides to eating mangoes?
The main ones are relevant to specific groups. People with IBS may react to the fructose in mango. Those with latex allergy can cross-react to mango skin. Anyone on blood-sugar management should watch portion size. Mango is also seasonal — outside February to June, genuine fresh Alphonso is simply not available, and off-season claims are misleading.
Carbide-ripened fruit sold elsewhere can cause mouth irritation and digestive discomfort; hay-bed ripened Alphonso, tested weekly through the season, avoids that specific problem.
