About Us

Founded in 1952, Gian Chand Dina Nath (GCDN) has been a pioneer in the rice industry for over 70 years. From humble beginnings to becoming one of India’s leading rice processors and manufacturers, our journey has always been guided by the values of quality, trust, and consistency. With three generations of expertise, we have built a reputation that stands strong in both domestic and international markets.

Our Brand – Waada Basmati Rice

With a growing presence in the Indian market and a portfolio that includes popular varieties such as 1121 Golden Sella, 1509, 1401, Sugandha, and Traditional Basmati, Waada has become a trusted name for quality and value.
