Honey Price in India per kg: Dabur, Patanjali and More

A 1 kg jar of everyday branded honey cost ₹430 to ₹495 on 21 October 2026, going by the prices on the brands' own online shops: Patanjali Honey ₹430, Baidyanath Madhu (baidyanath.com) ₹475, Dabur Honey ₹495, Baidyanath Madhu Honey (baidyanath.co.in) ₹495. Across all 18 packs we read, from 12 brands, the price per kg ran from ₹275 (Lion Kashmir Honey, a struck-through price; offered at ₹297) to ₹1,599 (Farm Naturelle Multi Flora Honey, a struck-through price; offered at ₹899). Forest, wild and single-flower honey sat around ₹1,190 a kg, against about ₹475 for everyday honey.

Prices were read on 21 October 2026 from each brand's own website, not from Amazon, Flipkart or quick-commerce apps. They are not a live rate. Shops often sell below the printed price, and prices change. IndianAgri does not sell honey and was not paid by any brand listed.

Read on 21 October 2026 from each brand's own shop and sorted by ₹ per kg within each type. The type is how the brand labels the honey. We used the MRP where the shop labels one, and otherwise the price it shows, marked.

Everyday branded honey

Organic honey

Forest, wild, raw and single-flower honey

No mark: the shop labels the figure MRP. * One price shown, no MRP label. ‡ Struck-through price on the shop, not labelled MRP. † Zandu Pure Honey: sold out that day; Lion Kashmir Honey: per kg worked out on the 1.2 kg in the jar, free 200 g included; Basha Honey, 4 × 1 kg: taxes and shipping extra, the shop says. Each product name links to the brand's own shop page we read.

₹ per kg is worked out from the pack weight and the price, nothing else. Amul's price was shown after choosing a Delhi delivery pin code (110001). Two Baidyanath shops, baidyanath.com and baidyanath.co.in, both name Shree Baidyanath Ayurved Bhawan and showed different MRPs for 1 kg (₹475 and ₹495); we show both.

Brands whose own site showed no honey price that day: Saffola (its honey pages list pack sizes and send buyers to Amazon); Apis Himalaya (its site is a company site that links to an Amazon store); Hamdard (we found no own shop selling its honey). We leave them out rather than borrow a retailer's figure.

Are you one of these brands, or did we read a price wrong? Send us the correct price with a link to your shop and we will update the table.

The table itself shows what moves the price.

• Where the honey comes from. Everyday branded honey sat around ₹475 a kg. Honey sold as forest, wild, raw or from one flower cost more, about ₹1,190 a kg in the middle of the range. Dabur's own shop shows the gap inside one brand: Dabur Honey at ₹495 a kg against ₹1,250 a kg for its Sundarbans forest honey.
• Organic or not. Dabur's organic honey works out to ₹1,100 a kg in a 300 g jar, while 24 Mantra's organic wild honey was ₹580 a kg in 500 g: the two organic packs differ by brand and by pack size.
• Pack size. Small jars cost more per kg. Dabur Honey, the same honey in every pack on its shop, ran from ₹485–495 a kg in packs of 650 g to 1.3 kg, ₹500 a kg in 500 g and 250 g jars, and ₹700 a kg in the 100 g jar.
• Glass or plastic. Farm Naturelle's shop lists its 1.45 kg multi flora honey at ₹2,249 in glass and ₹1,859 in a PET bottle (list prices, before its offers).
• The printed price is not the selling price. 5 of the 8 MRP-labelled packs were offered below MRP on the brand's own shop that day. Dabur Honey 1 kg, MRP ₹495, was offered at ₹382, 23% below.

Why one honey is priced above another is the seller's own case to make; this page records the prices and how each brand labels its honey. For another kitchen staple compared the same way, see our ghee price table.

Any honey sold in a pack in India must meet the honey standard in the Food Safety and Standards (Food Products Standards and Food Additives) Regulations, 2011, regulation 2.8.3. It defines honey as the natural sweet substance bees make from nectar or plant secretions, and says honey sold as such may have nothing added to it, not even a food additive. It must not be heated or processed so much that its make-up changes or its quality suffers.

The standard then sets limits that a laboratory checks. The main ones:

There are also carbon-isotope (δ13C) limits and limits for specific gravity, ash, acidity, water-insoluble matter and electrical conductivity.

The same regulation governs the words on the label. A honey may be called monofloral, from one flower, only if at least 45% of its pollen comes from that plant; otherwise it is multi floral. Honey from pressed combs must say "pressed honey".

What this means for you: a claim on a jar is the seller's; the standard is the law. If you buy honey in bulk, ask the supplier for a recent test report against these parameters from a laboratory, and check the FSSAI licence number on the label. (FSSAI regulations, compendium Version XXV, 23 September 2022.)

India produced 151.69 thousand tonnes of honey in 2024-25, according to the Department of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare's Final Estimates of horticulture production, up 3.7% from 146.26 thousand tonnes in 2023-24. The department publishes an all-India figure for honey but no state totals, so we do not rank states. See the figures and their source on our honey data page.

India exported 1,14,570.24 tonnes of natural honey in 2025-26, worth US$206.47 million, according to APEDA, using DGCIS trade data. The main buyers that year were the United States, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Portugal and Bangladesh (APEDA, Natural Honey).

The two figures are for different years and from different sources, so we do not divide one by the other.

Buying for a bakery, a sweet shop or a food factory? Retail jars are the wrong unit for a business, and some food makers use honey dried, as a powder for dry premixes, cereals and seasonings. Our sister site explains honey powder: what it is, why most of it is honey on a carrier, and how to get quotes from makers.

Thinking of processing honey yourself? Our machinery site's guide to the honey processing machine line walks through extraction, settling, moisture reduction, filtering and filling, and what to ask the makers.

Or tell us what you need and we will point you to the right supplier.
