Akshayakalpa is India’s first certified organic dairy enterprise bringing together a balance of practices based in science and the traditional heritage of dairy farming. At Akshayakalpa, sustainability is not a choice, it is a way of life. Our farmer-first, planet-friendly approach ensures every product that goes from our lush farms to your fridge is rich in nutrition, free antibiotics, chemicals and preservatives.

At the heart of our eco-system is our community of farmers. Our farmer entrepreneurship initiatives empower them by providing the resources required to emulate a business model that is not only profitable but humane, honest and above all, ethical.

We believe in conforming to standards of what is good and right. At Akshayakalpa, this begins at the grass-root level - literally! Organic fodder grown on our farms is the source of nourishment for our cows. No chemicals or hormones are added to their diet and thus do not find their way into the produce. Our cows are free-roaming and stress-free, which positively impacts the quality of the milk and it is high in nutrition and taste.

We are part of an on-going journey to create sustainable dairy farms which are a perfect amalgamation of our goal to nurture nature, preserve traditional practices and our scientific expertise. Akshayakalpa Organic milk is the main ingredient for all our products and it is here that we begin our assurance of quality and taste. Our milk is untouched by human hands, cooled via scientifically designed techniques and packaged with utmost care. This ensures zero-contamination and a high quality of product – both of which are tested regularly at our facility.
Our Farm Fresh Milk and A2 Milk are used in our other organic dairy products like curd, ghee, butter, paneer and artisan cheese under the Akshayakalpa brand. Each of these products bear the stamp of sustainability, nutrition and great taste – everything Akshayakalpa stands for!
