    JK stands for just kidding.

    Jk 🙂 It has a very nice website. But I don’t see the hechsher on the CRC list. Hatzlacha in your information search!

    They have a website. One needs to ask whomever one relies on for an evaluation of their competence.

    The fact that they post having inspectors fluent in Hindi makes me worry since most of the the places they claim to give hecksherim in, and most of the places where Jews live in the region, speak languages other than Hindi.

    “But I don’t see the hechsher on the CRC list.”

    A lot of smaller or more obscure hashgachas are not publicly spoken about by the bigger agencies. For most of us, it’s just noise. Call your local agency (or the CRC, star-K, etc) and ask.

    “The fact that they post having inspectors fluent in Hindi makes me worry…”

    On what web page is that?

    MDG: The webpage for the kashruth agency in question boasts about inspectors in Hindi, which is spoken in one area of India (where few Jews live, and not in the most commercially active areas such as Mubai/Bombay)- but the site claims to be providing services in both India and adjacent countries.

    why is it strange that a company that supervises products manufactured in india, speaks hindi?

    why is the fact that an agency is not on the holy crc list held against that agency by some on this site when the crc writes in the introduction to their “list”:

    “The fact that a particular agency does not appear on this list does not imply that the cRc has determined it to be substandard.”
