Premium Botanical Oil
Karanja Oil — Pongamia pinnata
Overview & Solvent-Free Processing
Our premium Karanja Oil is extracted from the seed pods of the Pongamia pinnata tree (frequently termed Millettia pinnata). In Raipur, Chhattisgarh, Bulchand Chhabaldas Oil Mill processes these seeds using low-temperature mechanical expelling without chemical solvents. This physical cold-pressing ensures that the core bioactive flavonoids, including karanjin and pongamol, remain structurally intact at supreme concentrations.
