Egg rate in Patna today
The NECC suggested rate in Patna on 19 September 2026 is ₹6.10 per egg — about ₹183 for a tray of 30, ₹610 per 100 pieces, and ₹1,281 for a peti of 210. That is ₹0.10 up on the previous published day's ₹6.00.
Patna is Bihar's main consumption market and one of India's more expensive. Bihar's own production is limited relative to its population, so Patna's rate carries the freight of eggs brought in from Andhra Pradesh, Odisha and Jharkhand's supply routes.
When eggs are cheapest in Patna
Across 7 years of data, Patna’s cheapest month is April (₹4.20 average per egg) and its dearest is December (₹6.06) — a seasonal swing of about 44%.
That pattern repeats most years. Demand for eggs rises through the Indian winter and falls through the hot months, while hens keep laying at roughly the same rate. If you buy in bulk — a bakery, a mess, a canteen — the seasonality chart above is your buying calendar.

What this rate does and doesn’t cover
This is NECC’s suggested wholesale rate for the Patna market. It is not a fixed price and nobody is obliged to trade at it. Your local shop will charge more: a retailer carries transport to the shop, handling, breakage and their own margin, so a shop price ₹15–30 above the tray figure is normal. Use this rate as your floor, not your target. Buying in bulk? How many eggs in a tray covers every trade unit — tray, peti, and the hundred.
