Product Story
What it is.

Moong Dal is split and dehulled green gram (Vigna radiata). The washed split variety — bright yellow, skin removed — is the primary GCC retail form and the standard export variant. Whole green gram (mung bean) and split skin-on are also available. Moong Dal is one of the most digestible legumes in the Indian pulse portfolio, making it a staple in institutional food service menus across GCC and South Asia.

Why it matters.

GCC retail buyers specify Moong Dal by colour consistency — the bright, uniform yellow of a well-washed split lot is a primary quality indicator on the retail shelf. Colour inconsistency (grey-green patches, off-white grains from under-processing) is the primary rejection reason in GCC retail quality checks. Our Sortex optical sorting produces consistent colour across the lot. What you see in the golden sample is what arrives in every container.

Sourcing.

Sourced from contracted processing facilities in Rajasthan (Jaipur, Kota, Alwar districts) — the state that accounts for over 40% of India's Moong Dal production. Rajasthan's dryland farming conditions produce Moong Dal with consistently low moisture content and high purity. We do not source from Maharashtra or MP for Moong Dal — Rajasthan origin produces the superior colour profile required for GCC retail.

Differentiation.

Moong Dal is where the golden sample system delivers the clearest value. The colour of the batch at the time of the golden sample approval is the locked reference. Our SGS/Intertek COA does not include a colour value measurement by default — but we conduct an internal colour check against the golden sample reference before presenting the lot for SGS inspection. Any lot that does not match the golden sample colour profile within tolerance is not presented for inspection — it is reprocessed.

Processing.

Soaking, dehulling, and splitting (for washed split). Gravity separation. Sortex optical sorting for colour uniformity and foreign matter removal. Post-Sortex colour check against golden sample. Fumigation before containerisation. SGS/Intertek inspection and sealing.

Proof.

SGS or Intertek COA on every lot: purity %, moisture %, broken %, admixture %, weevilled grain %. Internal colour consistency check before SGS presentation. Container sealed at inspection.
