Which atta is best for roti? Every TransVeda wheat atta compared

The best atta for roti depends on how your family eats: soft rotis straight off the tawa, rotis that sit in a tiffin until lunch, or more grains in every bite. Here is every wheat atta we grind, what it is, and who usually chooses it.

All of them are ground on our stone chakki in Udyog Vihar, Gurgaon, after you order, with the bran and germ left in and nothing added — no maida, no bleaching agents, no preservatives.

The quick answer

Wheat attas, one by one

MP Chakki Fresh Regular

Whole wheat from Madhya Pradesh, ground whole. This is the atta most of our customers buy every month: dependable rotis and parathas at the best price. Comes in large family packs.

MP Sharbati (Desi)

Sharbati is the golden, plump wheat of Madhya Pradesh that many North Indian families prefer for rotis. Desi is our everyday Sharbati — softer and slightly sweeter than Regular. Our label lists 11.5 g of protein per 100 g. Read more in our Sharbati atta guide.

MP Sharbati Desi Gold

Our most premium Sharbati. Rotis made with Desi Gold stay soft even after hours in a hotcase, which is why families who pack lunchboxes choose it.

Khapli (emmer)

Khapli is emmer, an ancient wheat grown mainly in Maharashtra, Karnataka and Gujarat. It has a nutty taste and makes slightly denser rotis. It is a wheat and it contains gluten. See the Khapli atta guide.

Natural High Protein Atta

Made from protein-rich grains and nuts. Our lab-verified label says one 26 g chapati carries about 6 g of protein — roughly 18 g in three rotis. It tastes about 80% like a normal roti.

Multigrain attas

Our multigrain attas mix Sharbati whole wheat with nine other grains and seeds: jowar, bajra, oats, chana, pumpkin seeds, flaxseeds, makka, jaun (barley) and ragi.

The difference is explained in multigrain atta ratios: 80:20 vs 60:40.

Then choose the grind

Every wheat atta comes in two pisai: Bareek-Medium (finer, softer rotis) and Medium-Mota (coarser, more texture). Not sure? Read bareek or mota.

Try before you commit

Sharbati Desi, Desi Gold and 10-grain multigrain all come in 1 kg trial packs — about 30–35 rotis — so you can taste them before buying a big bag. If you don't like it, our no-questions-asked return policy gives you a full refund.

Questions people ask

Which atta makes the softest rotis?

Of our attas, Sharbati Desi Gold makes the softest rotis and keeps them soft the longest. A finer Bareek-Medium grind and lukewarm water while kneading help with any atta — see how to make soft rotis.

Is multigrain atta harder to roll?

The 80:20 multigrain rolls almost like wheat atta. The 60:40 has less gluten in the mix, so roll it a little thicker and eat the rotis fresh.

Does Khapli atta contain gluten?

Yes. Khapli (emmer) is a wheat, so it contains gluten. Its gluten behaves differently from modern wheat, which is why the dough feels less stretchy.

Which atta should I start with?

If you are new to fresh chakki atta, start with a 1 kg trial pack of Sharbati Desi. Most families who like it move to the 10 kg pack.
