Known source within the stated scope; this is not a guarantee of current stock. Currently listed on a first-party surface; a listing is not confirmed shelf presence. Evidence applies to a chain catalog or company program, not automatically to every location. Evidence observation date 2026-09-12 (Patel Brothers).

Also: the ingredient is highly perishable; the evidence may be out of date for this kind of information; this is a chain listing with no local stock signal

Evidence used for this claim
  • On 2026-09-12, the retained Patel Brothers surface recorded the exact item 'Opo - Dudhi - Lauki - Bottle Gourd' at Chain-wide scope. This establishes a dated catalog relationship, not physical shelf stock, on-hand quantity, or future availability.

    Patel Brothers · Sep 12, 2026 (observation date) · supports the relationship claim · source

  • Rows were read from the first-party Patel Brothers chain online catalog. The catalog is chain-wide: no row named or bound a branch, so none establishes stock at 420 Harding Place or anywhere else, and the separately accepted Nashville store identity does not localize it.
