## Familiar parents, a different direction

Documented history: consult the claims and qualifications in the cited sources.

Arka Puneet is the Alphonso × Banganapalli hybrid developed at IIHR. Its sibling in this directory, Arka Aruna, uses the parents in the opposite order. Each is a separately selected variety.

The cross matters because some secondary lists mix Puneet up with Arka Anmol, whose parentage is Alphonso × Janardhan Pasand. The university and breeder records keep the family story clear: Puneet belongs to the Alphonso–Banganapalli pairing.
