Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) is a prominent fruit of India, occupies an area of 92,000 ha with the production of 600,000 MT and productivity of 6.2 MT/ha (Anonymous, 2018). China and India account about 84.56% and 1/5th of the total litchi production of the world (Yan et al., 2017). Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) is highly prized in its fresh form due its pleasant flavor and refreshing taste. Being a great source of dietary fiber, proanthocyanidins and polyphenolics, it is known to boost the immune system in human body (Deerasamee & Chaisawadi, 2014). Litchi fruits being very delicate and highly perishable in nature have low shelf life under ambient conditions. The attractive bright red color of fruit pericarp is however lost within 48 h. Prominent postharvest issues such as desiccation, pericarp browning, and decay are observed in litchi fruit after harvest that adversely affects the marketability leading to lower consumer acceptability and reduced retail price of the fruit (Kumar et al., 2013).Overall, total loss of litchi fruit throughout the supply chain was noted nearly 35%-43% comprising of sorting, wholesale marketing, retail level loss, and fruit weight loss (Kumar et al., 2016).
