Blessed by legend in ancient Kapilavastu, grown today in the same Tarai marshlands of Siddharthnagar — supplied farmer-direct in bulk lots of 100 kg and above across UP, India and abroad, with our full range of trading rices alongside.
Siddharthnagar holds ancient Kapilavastu — capital of the Shakyas, home of Prince Siddhartha. Kala Namak is that history you can taste.
Legend holds that after his enlightenment, the Buddha returned to Kapilavastu and gave the villagers grains of this rice, telling them to sow the seeds in the marshy lands — where it grows to this day.
The Chinese traveller Fa Hien, journeying through the Buddha's homeland, recorded the remarkable aromatic rice of this region — an account preserved in agri-history scholarship.
Excavations at Piprahwa–Aligarhwa in the district link this land directly to ancient Kapilavastu and the life of the Buddha — the same soil our farmers plant each season.
Kala Namak Rice holds Geographical Indication No. 205 and is the official One District One Product of Siddharthnagar — protected origin, recognised worldwide.
Classic, organic and brown Kala Namak lead every consignment — with basmati, sona masoori, parboiled and specialty rices available in the same bulk lots, so one truck covers your whole shelf.
Every lot moves through the same six steps — so a 100 kg order and a full container meet the same standard.
Paddy bought directly from registered farmer groups in the GI belt.
Season-fresh milling calibrated for the delicate Kala Namak kernel.
Machine colour-sorting for uniform, admixture-free lots.
Moisture, broken % and residue reports issued lot-wise.
Vacuum bricks, jute/PP bags or your private label — FSSAI-compliant.
Stored, documented and dispatched — UP, all-India or containerised export.
Within Uttar Pradesh, across India, or in a container overseas — same sorting, same testing, same bags.
Kala Namak is a heritage aromatic rice of Siddharthnagar with a black husk and pearl-white kernel, linked by legend to the Buddha himself. It carries Geographical Indication Tag No. 205 and is the official ODOP of the district — and it is naturally richer in zinc and iron than common rice.
All rice — Kala Namak and every other variety — is sold in multiples of 100 kg (1 quintal). You can combine varieties in one order and one quotation.
Yes. We ship FCL and LCL containers with phytosanitary certificate, certificate of origin, fumigation and customs clearance handled in-house with our CHA partners, subject to the destination country's import rules for rice.
Every Kala Namak lot ships with a sourcing declaration from the notified Siddharthnagar geography plus a lot-wise lab report covering moisture, admixture and broken percentage.
