Supplier to Australia

About Whole Masoor

Whole Masoor (Lens culinaris) is the unsplit, brown-skinned red lentil — the whole form before dehulling reveals the orange interior of split masoor dal. Whole masoor retains its seed coat, giving it a firmer bite, a nuttier flavour, and a longer cook time than the split lentil, making it ideal for traditional whole-lentil dishes, sprouting, salads, and feed.

India is the world's largest lentil producer (~1.2 million MT), with whole masoor grown as a Rabi (winter) crop concentrated in Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh. Whole masoor carries 24–26% protein and is machine-cleaned and colour-sorted for export. Its intact seed coat gives it excellent storage stability and pest resistance.

Globally, whole lentils trade in tiers: premium bold colour-sorted whole masoor for retail and sprouting, standard whole masoor for traditional cooking, and feed-grade lentils. India differentiates on diaspora loyalty, bold seed size, and cleaner glyphosate residue profiles compared with bulk-export origins such as Canada and Australia.

Compliance & Quality Standards for Australia

Australia enforces some of the world's strictest biosecurity standards. All plant-based products, grains, and spices must be approved for import under the Biosecurity Import Conditions (BICON) database maintained by the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF). An original phytosanitary certificate issued by India's NPPO (National Plant Protection Organization / Plant Quarantine) is mandatory, with specific treatment requirements such as heat treatment or methyl bromide fumigation for many commodities. Australia's Imported Food Inspection Scheme (IFIS) requires certain Indian food products to undergo 100% active surveillance testing on arrival. IndianXporter coordinates pre-shipment fumigation by accredited agencies, obtains the required DAFF-endorsed treatment certificates, and ensures full HACCP compliance documentation. The Goods and Services Tax (GST) and Customs Act 1901 govern tariff classification. At IndianXporter, we ensure every batch of whole masoor exceeds the quality expectations of Australia importers and adheres to all local regulatory mandates.
