Freshdi Market Insight
Source Sugandha Basmati Rice with real supply and demand data
India (49%) leads the 402 Sugandha Basmati Rice suppliers, with Pakistan at 16.9% and the United Arab Emirates at 4.2%, so sourcing from outside India is less common and may require more negotiation. The typical range is USD 444 - 1,159 per metric ton FOB, centered on a USD 1,000 median, meaning buyers should expect wide variation and assess quality or origin before committing. Buyer inquiries total 9 in the last 30 days. Buyers request CIF more often than suppliers offer it — a 17.1 percentage point gap — so a CIF price must be explicitly asked for in proposals.

How stable is this supply base?
Three separate questions, answered in order: is the product fresh, is the market busy, and can the sellers be trusted.
Is there much new product?
Sugandha Basmati Rice gained 96 new listings in the last 30 days, more than the 52 the month before. New offers are arriving at a much higher rate, so the catalog a buyer browses today includes a larger share of recent entries. Compare the listing dates when evaluating offers that appear similar.
Is the market busy?
Only 1 of the 402 suppliers joined in the last 12 months, so the pool is mostly made up of long-standing sellers. These suppliers have a history of consistent listings, which makes it easier to assess their reliability over time. The small number of new entries limits the variety of fresh names available. Review each supplier’s listing history before contacting them.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Sugandha Basmati Rice listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 4 November 2026 - 859 active listings, 144 buyer requests, 225 source documents, and 1,531 supply observations from the last 90 days. External export benchmarks are cited separately and never mixed into Freshdi figures.
Price and MOQ ranges are the interquartile range - the middle half of quotes, a quarter below and a quarter above - with the median reported alongside. A Sugandha Basmati Rice type is priced only once it holds at least 5% of supply price quotes and 3 priced listings with a real range; below that it is not listed. Buyer prices are compared only once there are at least 5 of them.
All prices are FOB, in USD per metric ton; quotes on other Incoterms are converted to a FOB equivalent. Freshdi does not hold a CIF price series for Sugandha Basmati Rice, so no landed-cost comparison is possible from this data.
Demand-versus-supply differences in trade and payment term shares are stated in percentage points, and origin rows add buyer requests per listing. Each figure carries its market scope - global - beside the number rather than in a footnote.
Product freshness counts listings created or updated. Supplier activity counts sellers by their last update. The two are different measurements and will not agree.
Freshdi reprocesses market data every hour, with one snapshot a day for trends. This page's figures, certification coverage included, refresh every 14 days on a rolling 365-day window.

| Point | What to check | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Incoterm and place | Every quotation names the same Incoterm and port or place. | Prices on FOB and on CIF differ by the freight and the insurance. |
| Specification | The grade, size or composition quoted matches the one asked for. | A lower grade can hide behind a lower price. |
| Quantity and MOQ | The price is for the quantity ordered, above the minimum order. | Unit prices change with the order size. |
| Packaging | Packing type, size and labelling are stated and the same. | Custom packing adds cost. |
| Payment term | The payment term and the deposit asked. | It moves the risk between buyer and seller. |
| Lead time | The production and shipping time to the destination. | A late shipment can cost more than a higher price. |
| Documents | The certificates and export documents included. | Missing papers can block customs. |
| Validity | How long the quoted price holds. | Quotations are often valid for a limited time only. |
Ask every counterpart to quote on the same basis: only then does the lower price win.
