Quick answer
The table below shows our prices today, updated by itself. Dry fruit prices usually rise before Deepavali and the wedding season, when demand is highest; buying a few weeks early and in the right pack size saves the most.
- Compare per 100 g, not per pack.
- Buy early for festival gift boxes.
- Store well so a bigger pack does not go to waste.

Why do dry fruit prices change?
Festival demandDeepavali, weddings
Best for: gift boxes and sweets raise demand for a few weeks every year
ImportsAlmonds, pista, walnuts
Best for: much of it is imported, so the rupee and import duties change the price
HarvestsCrop size
Best for: a smaller crop in the growing countries or states means higher prices
Grade and sizeWithin one nut
Best for: whole, large nuts cost more than broken or small ones of the same kind
These are the usual reasons prices move; we will not guess at next month’s prices.

Questions people ask
Are dry fruits cheaper after Deepavali?
Demand drops after the festival, but prices depend on imports and harvests too, so it is not certain.
Why is pista so much costlier than almonds?
Pista crops are smaller and most of it is imported, so it costs more per kg.
Is a bigger pack always cheaper?
Usually per 100 g, but check. Our table shows the price per 100 g for every pack.
