Market factors

Seasonal trends
The main Kerala harvest runs June to August. Prices often firm in the lean pre-harvest months and ease as fresh nutmeg arrives.

Still have questions? Talk to usWhat is the price of Nutmeg in India today?
Nutmeg is trading at ₹640 per kg in India as of 23 Jun 2026 — a reference wholesale rate aggregated from authorised public sources and normalized to ₹/kg. Indicative, for reference only — not an AroWest retail price.
What is the nutmeg price today in India?
The figure above is an indicative wholesale rate per kilogram for cleaned (without-shell) nutmeg. In-shell nutmeg trades lower.
Why is without-shell nutmeg costlier?
Removing the shell adds processing and yields the usable kernel directly, so cleaned, sound kernels command a premium over in-shell lots.
Are nutmeg and mace from the same tree?
Yes — mace is the bright red lacy aril that wraps the nutmeg seed. One fruit yields both, which is why their prices often move together.
Is this AroWest's retail price for nutmeg?
No — it is an indicative wholesale rate for raw produce. AroWest retail nutmeg is cleaned, graded and sealed, and priced separately in the shop.
