Pistachio is an integral part of the Indian food industry starting from cooking to baking. Pistachio nuts, commonly known as Pista, are a great source of healthy plant protein, fibre and fats. These are usually consumed as snacks. Many pistachio varieties are available in the market like Akbari, Badami, Fandoghi, Kaleh Qouchi, Shufra, Aryeh, etc.
Pistachio nuts are sold in many forms such as natural raw in-shell, dry, roasted, salted, roasted salted, organic, flavoured, kernel (Giri) and kernel slivered. Many other industries also use pistachio in the form of ice cream, butter, cream, spread, cake, chocolate, desserts and as a garnishing agent on sweets. These forms are the primary reason for their vast market. The Indian pistachio wholesale market comprises not only pistachio grown in India but also imported pistachio from America, Iran, Persia, Malaysia, California, Turkey, South Africa & Australia. The United States is on the top in pistachio production, followed by Iran and others.
Earlier pistachio wholesalers were facing several difficulties as the market was very unpredictable. Many of the times, the market price was much lower than the total cost of pistachio after importing them. But after the introduction of internet and trade analytics in the wholesale market, it is easy to predict the market to some extent. For the remaining part, it comes with experience.

The domestic production of pistachios is very low. It is majorly limited to Jammu and Kashmir. Iranian pistachios are dominating the Indian pistachio wholesale market due to their familiar size, shape, texture and taste.
The current health-conscious generation As demand in the pistachio-based industries increases (like during weddings & festive seasons the consumption of pistachio-based sweets and desserts increases), the pistachio wholesale prices also start moving in an upward direction. Increased supply from the pistachio producing regions (like the fall harvest) rings a bell for a drop in the market price of pistachio. Likewise, subdued demand in the off-season also calls for low prices in the pistachio market.

The high nutritional value of pistachios, makes it stand at the top among nuts, hence the wholesale price for these are also comparatively high. Pistachio prices are also affected by their storage, as it is both difficult and expensive to store them.
Pistachio prices in Delhi fluctuate based on market conditions, with factors such as quality, origin (e.g., Iranian or Californian), and demand affecting availability. Prices have experienced an uptick due to increased consumer interest and tighter supplies.
While California pistachios (imported from the United States), are considered premium quality pistachios due to their food safety and standards, Indians are likely to prefer Iranian pistachios because of their unique flavour and aroma.
