Buyer Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is traditional basmati?

The original landrace basmati, shorter in grain than 1121 but with the strongest aroma and most pronounced cooked texture. It commands a premium in connoisseur and gift retail.

Why is traditional basmati more expensive?

Lower yield per hectare and limited acreage, combined with steady demand from premium retail and hospitality buyers who specify it by name.

Which grades are available?

Raw white and steam mainly, since aroma is the selling point and heavy parboiling mutes it. Sella grades are available on request.

Is it GI tagged?

Yes, under APEDA basmati classification, grown in the Haryana and Punjab belt we source from.

Is RNG Agro Exports a direct Traditional Basmati Rice exporter in India?

Yes. RNG Agro Exports LLP is an APEDA-registered Traditional Basmati Rice exporter in India based in Gujarat. We contract Traditional Basmati Rice against your specification, test every lot and ship FOB Mundra or CIF your port.
