Our Roots: Where Tribal Wisdom Meets Modern Wellness

Jai Jungle was not born in a lab—it was born in the forests of Jashpur, from the fragrance of Mahua flowers, the strength of tribal women, and one man’s return to his roots. Founder Samarth Jain, after his research in Belgium, returned home to revive lost traditions. Witnessing Mahua’s reduced identity as a liquor ingredient, he explored its Ayurvedic potential—as a cooling, immunity-boosting, digestive, and hormonal balancing flower.

When COVID-19 struck, Samarth and tribal women developed India’s first Mahua-based hand sanitizer. That moment sparked Jai Jungle—now a registered Farmer Producer Company (FPC), 70% ST women-owned, focused on creating forest-based organic foods and livelihoods for rural women.

Our Journey: From Mahua to Movement

logo leaf new

A Scientist's Return to the Roots

Our founder, Samarth Jain, returned from Belgium after scientific research to his hometown of Jashpur. Immersing himself in village life, he observed the everyday use of Mahua — in teas for new mothers, chutneys, halwas, and more. But when he looked deeper, he was stunned: Mahua, once revered for its healing and nutritional benefits, had been reduced to a local liquor.

Who we are

Jai Jungle is a women-led movement reviving ancient tribal traditions through science and sustainability. Based in the forests of Jashpur, Chhattisgarh, our mission is to bring Mahua — a nutrient-rich, forgotten superfood — into modern homes with purity, purpose, and pride.

We work with 50+ tribal women to ethically harvest and process forest-grown Mahua into wellness-focused products: sweeteners, teas, oils, pain relief balms, and more. Every product supports livelihoods, preserves biodiversity, and strengthens tribal economies.
