अहिंसा
Ahimsa
Non-violence in every choice. No cow is ever sold, hurried, or hurt. Even her end is gentle, on her own time.
Our Sankalp · since 2013
One cow, one promise.
One cow, one promise.
Thirteen years later, thirty-five.
शुद्धता · सेवा · गौ-कृपा
Vaishnavi began the day we brought home one Gir cow named Saraswati and made her a quiet promise: that she would never know hunger, fear, or neglect. Thirteen years on, that promise is shared by thirty-five indigenous cows — and the families who let our milk into their homes keep it alive.

Today
Your kitchen, our gaushala
Every order you place feeds, shelters, and protects our family. The dharma continues.
What guides us
Four values, four pillars
सेवा
Seva
Service before profit. We feed thirty-five mouths first, every morning, before a single jar is sold.
शुद्धता
Shuddhata
Purity without compromise. A2 only, bilona only, no preservatives. If it isn't right by the cow, it isn't right by you.
धर्म
Dharma
Right action, every day. Transparent accounts, traceable milk, and a sankalp that does not waver.
Our breeds
Five indigenous breeds, one family
We keep only indigenous Indian cows — never cross-bred Holstein-Friesians or Jerseys. Every breed below is A2 by birth, drought- or heat-tolerant by inheritance, and has been part of Indian farming life for two thousand years or more.
Gujarat
Gir
A2 milk with high butterfat. Hardy, gentle, the classic Indian dairy breed.
Reddish, often white-patched. The most widely recognised indigenous Indian dairy breed. Distinctive convex forehead and pendulous ears — features shaped by climate, not breeding committees.
Punjab / Haryana
Sahiwal
India's finest dairy breed. Heat-tolerant, calm-tempered, consistently high-yielding.
Reddish-brown. A Sahiwal cow can produce milk in 40 °C heat that would shut down a Holstein-Friesian's lactation.
Rajasthan · Thar desert
Tharparkar
Dual-purpose, drought-resistant, deep-chested. The cow that survives where others can't.
White or grey. Named for the Thar Parkar region. Was nearly lost during Partition; conservation programmes brought the breed back.
Bihar · Sitamarhi
Bachaur
Compact, strong, traditionally a draught + dairy breed. Quiet temperament.
Greyish-white. Named for the Bachaur region near the Nepal border. Less famous than Gir or Sahiwal but every bit as important to local farming heritage.
Andhra Pradesh · Chittoor
Punganur
One of the smallest cattle breeds in the world. Dwarf stature, A2 milk with very high butterfat. Sacred in temple traditions.
Usually white or fawn. An adult Punganur stands about 70–90 cm at the shoulder — a 5-year-old child looks her in the eye.
Meet our family
Thirty-five names, thirty-five stories
