Sharbati Basmati Rice — Soft, Fluffy & Budget-Friendly
Sharbati means sweet — and this rice has a mild, pleasant taste that the whole family enjoys. Soft, fluffy, non-sticky. The most affordable basmati variety for daily family cooking.
What is Sharbati basmati rice?
Sharbati basmati rice is a popular budget basmati variety grown mainly in Madhya Pradesh and parts of Punjab. "Sharbati" means sweet or syrupy. The rice is shorter than premium basmati varieties but has a soft texture, mild pleasant aroma, and slightly sweet taste that many families prefer for daily eating. It is the most affordable way to enjoy genuine basmati quality every day.
What Is Sharbati Basmati Rice? Is It Different From Regular Basmati?
If your family eats rice every day and you want the basmati experience — long grain, fluffy, non-sticky — without paying a premium price every time, Sharbati basmati rice is the answer. It is the most affordable basmati that still delivers the proper basmati character.
The grain is slightly shorter than 1121 or Sugandha basmati, but it is still genuinely longer than ordinary non-basmati rice. The cooked texture is soft and fluffy with a pleasant mild aroma. Children especially love Sharbati rice because of its naturally slightly sweet taste.
At Lababdar Foods, we source Sharbati basmati from quality-certified farms and age it before milling. Our Sharbati rice has less than 3% broken grains, consistent grain size, and reliable quality in every batch — whether you buy 5 kg or 5 tonnes.

Is Sharbati Rice Real Basmati? (Yes — Here's Why)
This is a common question. Yes, Sharbati rice is a basmati variety. It comes from the same rice species (Oryza sativa Indica type) and the same GI-tagged basmati growing regions. It has the elongated grain, the mild natural aroma, and the non-sticky cooking property that defines basmati rice.
The difference from premium basmati is in the grain length and aroma intensity. Sharbati has a shorter grain (6-7mm) and milder aroma compared to 1121 or Sugandha basmati. This is why it is priced lower. But for daily cooking where you want proper basmati character — fluffy, separate, non-sticky — Sharbati delivers that at the most affordable price available.
What to Expect When You Cook Sharbati Basmati Rice
Grains elongate after cooking — longer than they look raw
