A Legacy That Began in 1981
Mr. S. P. Batra’s belief in right selection, built over 45 years of experience and trust.
Where Our Journey Began
From One Man’s Belief to a Brand Built to Last
In 1981, Mr. S. P. Batra didn’t just start a business, he started with a belief that most brands overlooked: that the tea itself deserved more attention than the packaging around it.
Right from day one, Batra’s took a different path. Instead of picking tea because it was easy to source, we chose to understand what made one quality different from another, and select accordingly.

How and Why It All Began
It comes down to one belief that hasn’t moved in 45 years: the right tea is chosen, not just sourced.
When Batra’s started, the goal was never to be the biggest, it was to be the most consistent. Rather than depending on one tea quality alone, we built our approach around selecting and blending different qualities, each one chosen for exactly what it brings to the final cup.
Markets have changed since 1981. Consumer tastes have changed. Even generations have changed. What hasn’t is this philosophy, experience combined with an unwillingness to compromise on quality.
What We Believe
Quality First
Quality is never something we check at the end. It is the starting point, the reason we choose one tea over another, long before it reaches your cup.
Right Selection
Every tea has its own character, strength, aroma, and colour. We understand these differences because the right selection makes all the difference in your cup.
Consistency
A cup of Batra’s should taste familiar today and ten years from now. That consistency comes from staying true to how we select and blend our tea.
Built on Trust
Since 1981, we have grown one relationship at a time, not one sale at a time. Forty five years later, that trust is still what we work hardest to keep.
