The Indian Davana Oil market experienced a sharp price increase from April to June 2025, driven by a lower-than-expected harvest and intense summer heat that affected both yields and quality. The currentseason, which ended in May, saw reduced output in major regions like Karnataka, with total production estimated around 7 metric tons compared to the usual 12– 15 metric tons. High-davanone content material is particularly scarce, contributing to premium pricing. Distillation had begun across key regions, but the scarcity of top quality oil persists. With demand remaining firm and no new crop expected soon, prices are forecast to remain elevated through the coming months.
