Guntur chilli

Guntur chillies (Telugu: Guntūru mirapakāyalu) are a group of chilli cultivars from the Guntur and Prakasam districts of Andhra Pradesh, India.

The Guntur district is the main producer and exporter of most varieties of chillies and chilli powder from India to regions such as Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Middle East, South Korea, the UK, the US, and Latin America. Chillies have various colours and flavours because of the level of capsaicin in them.

Market prices for the chillies are accessible on the National Agriculture Market or e-NAM.
