Looking for a White Basmati Rice Supplier in India?
"White basmati rice" refers to basmati in its purest colour — ivory white, without the amber-golden tone of parboiled/sella basmati. This includes both raw white basmati (no processing, strongest aroma) and steam white basmati (gently steamed, higher yield, more nutrition, still white). Both are supplied by Lababdar Foods directly from our Punjab mill.
White basmati is the preferred colour grade for biryani brands, premium retail, UK and USA Indian grocery markets, and hotel buffets. The clean ivory white colour communicates purity and premium quality at the point of sale — which is why most premium basmati brands choose white grades over amber.
We supply 1121 raw white (extra long, strongest aroma, biryani grade), 1121 steam white (extra long, 92-95% yield, hotel grade), 1509 raw white (long, good aroma), and 1509 steam white (long, 90-95% yield, value grade) — all available in retail packs to bulk sacks.

Raw White vs Steam White Basmati — What's the Difference?
Both are ivory white — but the production process is different, and so is the use case.
Raw white basmati is simply milled from dried paddy — no steam, no heat treatment. This preserves 100% of the natural aroma (2-AP compound) and gives the purest, most fragrant product. The grain is slightly softer, cooking yield is 80-85%. Best for premium biryani brands, gourmet retail, and markets where aroma is the top priority.
Steam white basmati goes through a gentle steam treatment before milling. The steam hardens the grain, pushes nutrition inside, and raises the cooking yield to 92-95% — all while keeping the colour ivory white. Best for hotels, health retail, and bulk catering where yield and grain strength matter more than maximum aroma.

White Basmati vs Golden Sella Basmati — Which Grade to Supply?
White Basmati (Raw or Steam) — Ivory white colour, 80-95% yield (depending on raw/steam). Best for biryani retail, premium Indian grocery, hotel buffets, Western export markets (UK, USA, EU), and any buyer who wants white colour for their product.
Golden Sella Basmati (Parboiled) — Amber-golden colour, 95%+ yield, hardest grain. Best for Gulf, Iran, Africa, and Arab cuisine applications where amber colour is preferred.

— Premium Biryani Brand Director, MumbaiWritten & Verified by Punjab Mill Experts
Achieving consistent ivory white colour in basmati requires careful control of two things: the polishing intensity (too much = chalky white; too little = uneven) and — for steam white — the steam pressure (too high = grains turn yellow). We have spent years optimising both parameters. The result is a consistently clean, natural ivory white that our retail and hotel customers depend on.
