What is today's egg rate in India?

The national average NECC egg rate shown on this page is calculated every morning from the wholesale declarations of every market we track. Open any city page for the exact local price per egg, per dozen, per tray and per 210-egg peti.

How often are egg rates updated?

Rates are refreshed every morning after the day's market declaration, and any correction published later in the day is applied immediately with a fresh timestamp.

What is the difference between wholesale and retail egg price?

Wholesale is the price traders pay at the mandi, usually a few paise below the declared rate. Retail is the shop price you pay, which typically carries a margin of ₹0.50 to ₹1.00 per egg.

How many eggs are in a tray and a peti?

A standard tray holds 30 eggs and a peti (box) holds 210 eggs, which is seven trays. We show both prices so traders and households can compare directly.

Why do egg rates differ between cities?

Feed cost, local production capacity, transport distance from producing belts such as Namakkal and Hyderabad, and seasonal demand all move the daily price city by city.

Is the data on EggRate India verified?

Every published rate carries a verified badge only after an editor has matched it against the declaring source. Each change is stored in an immutable history log.

Can I see historical egg price trends?

Yes. Every rate we publish is archived, so you can compare any two dates and follow 7-day, 30-day and long-run trends.

Do you charge for egg rate data?

No. EggRate India is free to use and supported by advertising.
