Hempstrol Alternative
Kushiva is a doctor-supervised cannabis wellness brand whose oils start at Rs 1,199 - less than half of Hempstrol's least expensive THC oil (Rs 2,500, checked July 2026). A batch certificate of analysis is on file for every batch, labelling is plain extract-mg-per-ml with a free calculator to convert a prescribed amount into drops, and every order carries a GST invoice.
- Oils from Rs 1,199
- Batch COA available
- Doctor-reviewed before dispatch
- GST invoice, ships 3-5 working days
Is Kushiva a good Hempstrol alternative?
Kushiva is the cheaper alternative to Hempstrol at the entry point, and the simpler one to read. A 10 ml Kushiva oil is Rs 1,199 against Rs 2,500 for Hempstrol's least expensive THC oil (July 2026). Hempstrol labels its range in CBD:THC ratios per gram; Kushiva labels extract milligrams per millilitre and provides a free calculator that turns a prescribed milligram amount into a number of drops. The one thing Hempstrol offers that Kushiva does not is cash on delivery.
A 1:9 ratio walks into a bar. Nobody knows how much to pour.

What is actually in the bottle
- Made in a GMP and ISO-certified facility. Manufacturing standards govern how consistently a batch is produced — the difference between a formulation that behaves the same way every time and one that does not.
- Full-spectrum leaf extract, not an isolate. The leaf’s natural compound profile is retained rather than stripped down to a single molecule.
- An MCT carrier oil, not a filler oil. Our oils are a 20% Vijaya leaf extract carried in MCT. Carrier choice is the quietest quality decision in this category and the one buyers rarely check.
- Standardised strength, stated as a number. 200 mg per ml on the label, and 350 mg of standardised leaf extract per gummy — not a ratio you have to convert, and not a range.
- Gummies with no added sugar. A cola-flavoured, portioned format that does not carry a confectionery sugar load with it.
- Flavoured because extract is not pleasant. Mint in the oil, cola in the gummies. This matters more than it sounds when something is taken daily.
- Blister-packed, one dose per cell. Portioning is hygiene and dose control at the same time.
Every figure above is printed on the approved label, so you can check it against the pack rather than take our word for it.
Brands label actives in different units, so the table compares price, proof and process — not potency. Amounts belong with the approved label and a registered medical practitioner. Prices and policies as listed on 16 July 2026; sources below.
The money
What you actually pay
02Hempstrol's THC oils run from Rs 2,500 to Rs 3,250. Kushiva's entry oil is Rs 1,199, which is less than half the lower figure, and the 30 ml bottle at Rs 2,490 still comes in under Hempstrol's cheapest. The catch worth naming is that the two ranges are not labelled the same way: a 1:1 or 1:9 CBD:THC ratio per gram cannot be converted into extract milligrams per millilitre without knowing what else is in the bottle. Compare what you pay per bottle, and let the approved label and a doctor settle the amount.
| Product | Size | Price | Strength on the label | Works out at |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cannabis leaf extract oil | 10 ml | Rs 1,199 | 200 mg/ml | Rs 120 per ml |
| Cannabis leaf extract oil | 30 ml | Rs 2,490 | 200 mg/ml | Rs 83 per ml |
| Cannabis gummies | Pack of 10 | Rs 3,550 | 350 mg per gummy | Rs 355 per gummy |
| Full-spectrum enriched extract | 5 g | Rs 3,500 | Concentrated extract | Rs 700 per gram |
Prices are inclusive of GST, so the figure on the product page is the figure you pay. The right-hand column is arithmetic on the listed price, not a dosing suggestion — how much to take belongs with the approved label and a registered medical practitioner.

The process
How ordering from Kushiva works
03Pick a format, or let the quiz pick one
Oils let you adjust a drop at a time; gummies are pre-portioned; the enriched extract is concentrated. If you are not sure, the free format-finder quiz asks a handful of questions and points at one. Nothing is charged at this stage.
Upload a prescription, or let us arrange the consultation
Hempstrol requires a prescription and runs an in-house Ayurvedic doctor; Kushiva reaches the same place from the other direction. You can order first and either upload a prescription you already hold or take a consultation we arrange, and the order waits until that clears. Either route ends with a registered practitioner having seen it. The legal background is here if you want to understand why the step exists.
A doctor reviews the order before it is packed
This is the step most buyers do not realise happens. Whether you uploaded a prescription or took the arranged consultation, an in-house doctor looks at the order before dispatch. If something does not add up — a format that does not fit the request, an interaction worth flagging — we contact you rather than ship it. Our guide to Vijaya and other medicines covers the interactions that come up most often.
It ships in 3 to 5 working days with a GST invoice
Packaging is discreet and unbranded on the outside. A GST invoice is issued on every order, which matters if you are claiming it or simply want a paper trail. Prices are inclusive of GST, so the figure on the product page is the figure you pay. Delivery terms are set out in the refund and return policy.

Switching over
Moving from Hempstrol: what changes
05
Ratios become millilitres
This is the biggest practical change. Instead of picking a 1:1 or 1:9 product, you get one standardised strength — 200 mg of extract per millilitre — and adjust by volume. The free dropper calculator converts a doctor-advised milligram figure into drops for your bottle size.
You will need to prepay
Kushiva is prepaid: UPI, cards or netbanking, with a GST invoice issued on every order. If cash on delivery is a requirement rather than a preference, Hempstrol is the better fit and we would rather say so than waste your time.
More formats than oil
Alongside the oils there are cola gummies at 350 mg per gummy and a concentrated enriched extract. If oil was never the format you wanted, the format-finder quiz will say so in about a minute.
Where they win
When Hempstrol is the better buy
06Two things keep Hempstrol on shortlists, and both are real. It offers cash on delivery, which matters if you cannot or would rather not prepay. And its range is labelled in CBD:THC ratios, which is the right choice if your practitioner talks in those terms and has asked for a specific ratio.
Comparison pages are usually written by the winner, so treat this one the same way you would treat theirs: check the figures. Every price here is dated and sourced at the foot of the page, and if one is wrong we would rather fix it than defend it.
Straight answer
What we can promise, and what we cannot
07We cannot promise it will do anything for you.
Nobody honestly can. Responses differ, and a seller who guarantees an outcome is telling you what you want to hear rather than what is true.
We can promise the label is the truth.
The 350 mg printed on the gummy is 13% of a 2,700 mg gummy, which works out at 351 mg on the batch certificate. The label and the document agree, and that is arithmetic you can check.
We can promise what carries it.
A 20% Vijaya leaf extract in an MCT carrier oil, not a filler oil. Full-spectrum rather than an isolate. Gummies with no added sugar, blister-packed one dose per cell.
We can promise a doctor sees it before you do.
Every order is reviewed in-house before it is packed. If something does not fit, we contact you instead of shipping it.
You are not really buying a bottle. You are buying the certainty of knowing exactly what is inside it, who checked it, and what it cost — on something you may take a few hundred times a year. We have done everything in our power to make sure what reaches you is exactly what we said it would be. The rest belongs with the approved label and your doctor.
Common questions

Does Kushiva offer cash on delivery like Hempstrol?
No - Kushiva is prepaid (UPI, cards, netbanking) and issues a GST invoice on every order. Hempstrol advertises COD, which may suit buyers who cannot prepay.
Can I compare Hempstrol ratios with Kushiva strengths?

Yes. Email hello@kushiva.com with the product name and we will send the batch certificate. You do not need to have ordered anything first.
How do I work out how many drops to take?
