India's Export Infrastructure: What Buyers Should Know
India's pulse supply chain has a distinct seasonal character that experienced importers exploit for cost savings. The kharif (summer) crop harvests from November through January, and the rabi (winter) crop from March through May. For moong and urad, the kharif window offers the best prices. For chana, gram, and masoor, the rabi window is optimal. Year-round supply is possible through trader inventory, but at higher prices. Buyers who plan quarterly procurement windows aligned to harvest cycles consistently achieve 8–12% lower annual average costs than those who buy reactively.
