Featured Products

Indrayani rice is something most Maharashtrian homes are very familiar with. It’s a soft, short-grain rice that’s been used for years, especially in everyday meals. If you’ve ever had simple varan-bhat at home, chances are it was made with this rice.
At Prakritii Organics, this rice comes from farms in the Maval region near Pune, which is where Indrayani originally comes from. It’s grown without chemical fertilisers or pesticides, using the same methods farmers have been following for a long time. For people already trying to switch to organic vegetables or looking for better options like organic vegetables in Mumbai or organic vegetables in Pune, choosing rice like this is just part of improving everyday food.
One thing about Indrayani rice is that its taste and texture depend a lot on where it’s grown. The Maval region has its own soil and water conditions, which give this rice its soft texture and mild aroma. That’s why it feels a bit different from other rice varieties.

Health Benefits & Nutrition

Indrayani rice is simple food, but it works well for daily meals. It gives steady energy and is easy to digest, which is why it’s often used for both kids and older people.
Since it’s not heavily polished, it keeps some natural nutrients like basic minerals and vitamins. Nothing extreme, but enough to make it a good everyday option.
One of the main reasons people prefer it is how light it feels after eating. It doesn’t feel too heavy, and that’s why it’s often used when someone is unwell or needs simple food.
In many homes, soft rice with dal and a little ghee is considered one of the easiest meals to digest. Indrayani rice works well for that.

How to Use & Storage

This rice is mostly used for daily cooking. Varan-bhat, khichdi, or simple rice meals are the most common. It cooks soft, so it mixes well with dal or curry.
You can cook it in a regular pot or pressure cooker. Just adjust the water depending on how soft you want it. For softer dishes like pej or rice gruel, you can add more water.
It’s also used in some traditional recipes like modak dough or fermented batters, because of its natural starch.
For storage, just keep it in an airtight container in a dry place. It stays fine for months if stored properly.

What makes Indrayani rice different from other rice varieties?

Indrayani is a short-grain, aromatic rice variety native to the Maval region of Pune, Maharashtra. It has a soft, slightly sticky texture when cooked, a mild natural fragrance, and a flavour profile that is distinctive to its growing region — qualities that make it the preferred everyday rice in Maharashtrian households.

Is organic Indrayani rice from Prakritii grown in the authentic Maval region?

Yes. Prakritii Organics sources our Indrayani rice directly from farming families in the Maval region of Pune district — the original geographical home of this variety — where it is grown using organic, chemical-free farming methods.

Can I use Indrayani rice for making modak?

Yes. Indrayani rice flour is the traditional choice for ukadiche modak dough. Its starch content produces a naturally pliable, smooth outer layer that holds its shape during steaming without cracking.

Is Indrayani rice suitable for babies and elderly family members?

Yes. Indrayani rice is one of the most easily digestible rice varieties available. Its soft-cooking nature makes it ideal for pej (thin rice gruel) for infants and elderly individuals, as well as for light recovery meals for anyone with digestive sensitivity.

How does organic Indrayani rice differ from the Indrayani sold in regular shops?

Conventionally grown Indrayani may be treated with pesticides and post-harvest chemicals. Organic Indrayani from Prakritii is grown without any synthetic inputs, delivering rice that is free from chemical residues, more flavourful, and nutritionally more complete.
