About TaazaBhav

A digital mandi rate register — built to answer one question fast: what's today's price, and is it a good one?

What this is

Every day, millions of people in India ask some version of the same question — what's onion selling for today, is this a good time to sell soyabean, has tomato gone up again. Usually the answer means calling someone at the mandi, scrolling through a government website that wasn't built for phones, or just guessing. TaazaBhav (ताज़ाभाव — "fresh price") exists to make that answer take seconds, not calls.

It's not just a price lookup table. Alongside today's rate, TaazaBhav shows the price trend, how a price compares to the government's Minimum Support Price where one exists, and where the same commodity is selling for more or less across different markets — the things that actually help someone decide whether to buy, sell, or wait.

Where the data comes from

Every price on this site comes from data.gov.in / Agmarknet — the Government of India's official daily mandi price dataset — pulled through their public API three times a day via an automated pipeline. Nothing is scraped, estimated, or manually entered. If a market hasn't reported a price for a given day, TaazaBhav shows that plainly rather than filling in a guess.

Minimum Support Price (MSP) figures come from official Cabinet/PIB press releases and are updated by hand each time the government announces a new marketing season's MSP — usually once or twice a year, since there's no live feed for this the way there is for daily mandi prices.

What TaazaBhav isn't

• It isn't a trading platform or a broker — TaazaBhav doesn't buy, sell, or negotiate on anyone's behalf.
• It isn't financial advice — it shows public price data so you can make your own informed decision, not a recommendation to buy or sell.
• It isn't paywalled — historical trends and every market's price are free to see, with no login and no "Pro" tier hiding the useful parts.
