In the business community, 'Phaḷ' is often synonymous with profit or market reputation built over decades. Mango season (April-June) is the literal time for 'Phaḷ khāvā'. It is a time of great joy and community sharing. Used frequently in motivational WhatsApp messages and 'Suvichar' to encourage resilience among youth.
