Our Story

In the mid-1840s, as the British Raj tightened its hold on India, the East India Company, under Lord Auckland, focused on expanding commerce, especially in Calcutta. It was in this era of transformation that attracted the attention of two young brothers, Sri Kali Krishna Dutta and Sri Krishna Chandra Dutta.
Born in Adisaptagram, a village in Bengal, the brothers had always dreamt of building something larger than life. The call of trade, the lure of bustling markets, and the aroma of rich Indian spices inspired them. Determined, they left their ancestral home and moved to Sutanuty (modern-day North Kolkata), a flourishing market known for its cotton and muslin trade. Here, amidst traders from distant lands, they saw their future unfold. In 1847, with courage and ambition, they opened their first spice shop on Darmahatta Street (now Maharshi Debendra Road). The shop, though small, held within its walls the fragrance of freshly ground spices—cumin, cardamom, turmeric—each telling a tale of India’s rich heritage. What began as a humble venture soon gained recognition, and thus, the Dutta Spice Dynasty was born.
