Non-Basmati Rice Exporter from India
Indiafeast Millers Private Limited is a non-basmati rice exporter from India shipping IR64, PR11, Sona Masoori, Sharbati and Sugandha rice by the container to importers, distributors and wholesalers. You choose the grain, the finish and the broken grade. We mill it to that spec at the Indiafeast rice processing unit in Taraori and load it at the port that gets it to you at the lowest freight.
Non-basmati rice exporter from India: the short version
If you buy rice by the container, you mainly want to know three things: which grades we offer, how we keep them the same every time, and how the rice reaches your port. Indiafeast Millers Private Limited is a non basmati rice manufacturer and exporter with its head office in New Delhi. Export lots are milled, graded and bagged at the Indiafeast rice processing unit in Taraori, Karnal.
We don't really sell "rice". We sell a grade: a named variety, a finish, a broken percentage and a moisture limit, all written into the contract. That is what lets a distributor reorder six months later and get the same bag of rice.
What is non-basmati rice?
Put simply, it is any rice that isn't basmati. In India that means long grains such as IR64, PR11, Sharbati and Sugandha, medium grains like Sona Masoori, and short, bold round grains. Most have a mild aroma or none at all, cook faster than basmati and cost noticeably less per ton.
The bigger difference between two bags of non-basmati is usually not the variety but the processing: white or parboiled, raw or sella, 5% or 25% broken. Get those choices right for your buyers and the rice sells; get them wrong and it sits in the warehouse.

Eight non-basmati varieties, one supplier
Most buyers start with one variety and add a second within a year: usually a low-cost long grain for volume and an aromatic sella for margin. Here is the range in plain words, from white and parboiled long grain to whole-grain brown rice, with the typical grain length and the finishes each one comes in. As an IR64 non basmati rice exporter we move the most volume in long grain, but every variety below ships all year.
Long Grain Rice (IR64)
The workhorse. Slender, cooks separate and comes in every broken grade from 5% to 100%, white or parboiled. If you need volume at a sharp price, start here.
Medium Grain Rice
A little shorter and softer than IR64, and cheaper per ton. Schools, hospitals and value packs go through a lot of it.
Round Grain Rice
Short, round and soft on cooking, with a slight stickiness. Made for markets that like a round grain, and for puddings and porridge.
Sona Masoori Rice
Light, low in starch and mildly fragrant. South Indian kitchens at home and abroad cook it every day, raw or steamed.
Sharbati Rice
Long and slim with a faint natural aroma. Buyers who want length on the plate without the basmati price often settle on Sharbati.
Sugandha Rice
The most fragrant grain in our non-basmati range, around 8 mm long. Sugandha sella is as close to a basmati plate as you get without paying for basmati.
Brown Non-Basmati Rice
Only the husk comes off, so the bran stays on. Nutty, chewy and richer in fibre, in long, medium and round grain for health shelves and wholefood buyers.
Need 100% broken or pesticide-free rice?
Both ship by the container too. Tell us the grain, broken % and finish you need, and we'll match it or send samples of the nearest grade.
Send your specificationPesticide-free ricePick the right broken grade and finish
Here is something new buyers often miss: with non-basmati rice, the broken percentage can move the price as much as the variety. A 5% lot looks clean in a retail pack. A 25% lot cooks the same and saves you money per ton. And 100% broken goes to mills and kitchens that never needed whole grains. As a non basmati rice exporter, we grade every lot to the percentage written on your contract. Tap a grade to see what it is, how it cooks and who usually buys it.
5% broken white
- What it is
- Long grain white rice graded so that no more than 5% of the kernels are broken, then double polished and Sortex-cleaned.
- How it cooks
- Clean, even grains that cook separate and look premium on the plate.
- Best for
- Supermarket packs, hotels and buyers who sell on appearance.
25% broken white
- What it is
- The same long grain with up to a quarter broken kernels allowed in the lot, which brings the price per ton down.
- How it cooks
- Cooks and tastes like 5% broken, with shorter pieces mixed in.
- Best for
- Value retail, institutions, food programmes and price-led wholesale markets.
5% broken parboiled
- What it is
- Paddy is soaked, steamed and dried before milling, then graded to 5% broken. Parboiling gives the golden amber colour.
- How it cooks
- Firm grains that never turn mushy and stay good after reheating.
- Best for
- Catering kitchens, bulk cooking and markets in Africa and the Gulf that cook rice in large pots.
100% broken rice
- What it is
- Broken kernels separated during grading, supplied as white or parboiled broken rice.
- How it cooks
- Soaks up stock and spices fast, and mills easily into flour.
- Best for
- Rice flour, starch, brewing, breakfast cereals, animal feed and broken-rice dishes such as thieboudienne.
Brown rice
- What it is
- Only the husk is removed, so the bran layer and germ stay on the grain.
- How it cooks
- Nutty and chewy, with a longer cooking time than white rice.
- Best for
- Health food stores, organic and wholefood shelves, and fibre-conscious buyers.
How non-basmati rice is processed for export
Buyers often ask how one container ends up like the next. The honest answer is careful, repetitive work: checking paddy at the gate, parboiling to a fixed recipe, grading by length and running every lot through a Sortex sorter. These are real photos from the Indiafeast rice processing unit, where we work as a non basmati rice manufacturer, followed by the grains that come out at the end.
From paddy to a graded lot: how a non-basmati rice exporter from India works
Paddy bought by variety
Paddy is bought variety by variety and checked for moisture, purity and grain size before it enters the unit.
Parboiling for parboiled grades
For parboiled and sella lots the paddy is soaked, steamed and dried, which hardens the grain and sets its colour.
Dehusking & polishing
Husk is removed and the rice is whitened and double polished; brown rice skips the whitening step.
Grading by broken %
Length graders separate whole and broken kernels so the lot meets 5%, 25% or 100% broken.
Sortex sorting
Colour sorters take out discoloured, chalky and black grains and any foreign matter.
Bagging & container stuffing
The lot is bagged in 25 kg, 50 kg or jumbo bags and stuffed into the container with loading photos for you.
The numbers behind every non-basmati lot
Ask two suppliers for "5% broken IR64" and you can get two quite different rices. That is why, as a non-basmati rice exporter from India, we put the numbers in writing. The table shows typical figures for our long grain export lots; your exact limits go into the contract and onto the quality certificate that travels with the container.
| Average grain length (AGL) | 5.8–6.2 mm for IR64 long grain, about 6.9 mm for PR11, about 5.2 mm for Sona Masoori |
|---|---|
| Moisture | Up to 14% (14.5% maximum) |
| Broken grains | 5%, 25% or 100%, as per the grade you order |
| Damaged & discoloured | Under 0.5% for 5% broken grades |
| Chalky grains | Nil to negligible in premium grades |
| Immature grains | Under 1% |
| Purity | 94–96% of the declared variety |
| Cleaning & polish | 100% Sortex-cleaned, double polished |
Typical values. Specifications for medium grain, round grain, sella and 100% broken lots differ and are shared with each quote.
Variety and moisture at intake
Paddy is accepted only after a variety, moisture and grain-size check, so the lot starts on spec.
Parboiling under control
Soaking time, steaming and drying are set per grade, which keeps the colour of parboiled and sella lots even.
Graded to your broken %
Length graders split whole and broken kernels until the lot matches the 5%, 25% or 100% broken you ordered.
Certificate with every lot
A quality certificate goes with each shipment, and a pre-shipment inspection by your agency can be arranged.
Bulk shipping from an Indian port to yours
Rice is heavy, and freight is a big slice of your landed cost, so the shipping side deserves as much attention as the grain. As a non-basmati rice exporter from India, we book the container, stuff and seal it, clear it through the port and send the documents your customs will ask for, with photos of your container before it sails.
Loading ports in India
As a non basmati rice exporter we choose the loading port by freight rate and sailing schedule to your destination, so bulk lots move at the lowest landed cost.

Who is a reliable non-basmati rice exporter from India?
Indiafeast Millers Private Limited is a non-basmati rice exporter from India, founded in 2021. The rice is graded and bagged at the Indiafeast rice processing unit in Taraori, Karnal, and the same company handles the export, so one team answers for the grade, the bag and the loading date.
Where is your non-basmati rice processed?
At the Indiafeast rice processing unit in Taraori, Karnal, in Haryana. As a non basmati rice manufacturer and exporter, Indiafeast Millers runs parboiling, milling, grading, Sortex sorting and bagging for its export lots there.
Which non-basmati rice varieties do you export?
As a non-basmati rice exporter from India, we ship IR64 long grain, medium grain, round grain, Sona Masoori, PR11, Sharbati and Sugandha rice, plus brown rice and pesticide-free rice. Most of them come as white (raw), steam, parboiled or sella.
Do you export IR64 rice?
Yes. We are an IR64 non basmati rice exporter supplying white and parboiled IR64 long grain at 5%, 25% and 100% broken, in 25 kg or 50 kg bags, jumbo bags or private label packs.
What is the difference between 5%, 25% and 100% broken rice?
It is the share of broken kernels allowed in the lot. 5% broken is the cleanest and costs the most, 25% broken tastes the same at a lower price, and 100% broken is made only of broken kernels, used for flour, starch, brewing, feed and broken-rice dishes.
What is parboiled rice and who buys it?
Parboiled rice is soaked, steamed and dried in the husk before it is milled. The grain turns firmer and slightly golden, keeps more of its nutrients and does not go mushy, which is why catering kitchens and many buyers in Africa and the Gulf prefer it.
Is IR64 rice the same as PR11 rice?
No. Both are non-basmati long grains, but IR64 is a slender grain of about 5.8–6.2 mm sold as white or parboiled, while PR11 is a Punjab variety of about 6.9 mm that is mostly sold as sella and gives a longer, firmer grain.
What is the non-basmati rice price per ton?
It depends on the variety, broken %, finish, bag and Incoterm, and it moves with crop arrivals and export policy. Our rice price page lists current export prices per metric ton; send your grade and port for a firm CNF or CIF offer.
What is the minimum order?
For a non basmati rice exporter like us, the minimum is one full container load, about 24–26 tons in a 20 ft container depending on the bag size. Two grades in one container can be discussed.
Which documents come with a shipment?
You receive the invoice and packing list, the bill of lading, a certificate of origin, phytosanitary and fumigation certificates and our lab analysis. If your market needs a Halal certificate or an SGS-type inspection, we add it to the order.
Can I get samples before ordering?
Yes, at no cost. Pick two or three grades and your non basmati rice supplier India team couriers a sample of each, so you can measure the broken %, look at the colour and cook it before placing the order.
Do you also supply basmati rice?
Yes. Besides being a non-basmati rice exporter from India, Indiafeast also exports 1121, 1401, 1509, 1718 and Pusa basmati rice, and many buyers combine basmati and non-basmati grades in one supply plan.
