Prestige Deluxe Alpha Svachh Stainless Steel Pressure Handi 3 Litre – Traditional Handi Shape | 304 Grade SS | Alpha Induction Base | Svachh Deep Lid | ISI Certified | 10 Year Warranty
Bring home the best of tradition and modern engineering in one beautifully shaped vessel. The Prestige Deluxe Alpha Svachh Pressure Handi combines the classic rounded handi shape — beloved in Indian kitchens for slow, flavour-rich cooking — with the safety, speed, and convenience of a pressure cooker. Made from high-quality 304 Grade stainless steel, this handi is non-reactive, rust-resistant, and perfectly suited for cooking everything from rich gravies and biryanis to dal makhani and kheer that tastes like it simmered all day.
The Svachh deep lid is the defining feature of this handi — it traps and contains any starchy water or foam that rises during pressure cooking, preventing it from spilling down the sides. Your stovetop stays clean, your handi stays presentable, and cleanup after cooking takes barely a minute. Underneath, the patented Unique Alpha Induction Base ensures perfectly even heat distribution across the rounded base — no hot spots, no uneven cooking — while making the handi compatible with Gas, Radiant Ring, Solid Plate, Induction, and Ceramic cooktops.
Safety is built into every layer of this handi. The Unique Pressure Indicator shows you when it's safe to open, the Controlled Gasket-Release System safely vents excess steam, and the Mini Metallic Safety Plug acts as the final failsafe against dangerous over-pressurisation. Proudly Made in India by TTK Prestige — a brand with over 75 years of legacy — and backed by an ISI certification (IS: 2347) and a reassuring 10-year warranty.

Key Features
Traditional Handi Shape – Designed for Indian Cooking
Unlike a standard cylindrical pressure cooker, this vessel has the classic rounded handi shape with a wider belly and narrower opening — the traditional form that Indian cooks have used for centuries to make slow-cooked gravies, biryanis, kormas, and dals. The shape promotes natural convection of heat within the vessel, helping flavours develop more fully during pressure cooking.
304 Grade Stainless Steel Body
The entire handi is crafted from high-quality 304 Grade stainless steel — food-safe, corrosion-resistant, and non-reactive with acidic ingredients like tomatoes, tamarind, and citrus that are common in Indian cooking. It does not rust, does not discolour, and maintains its shine with regular washing.
Svachh Unique Deep Lid – Controls Spillage
The deep concave Svachh lid is uniquely designed to collect and contain starchy foam and water that rise during pressure cooking — stopping it from flowing down the outer walls of the handi. This keeps your stovetop and the exterior of the handi clean during every cooking session, making it far easier to maintain than a standard pressure handi.
Patented Unique Alpha Induction Base
The Alpha Base is a patented multi-layer base that distributes heat evenly across the entire bottom of the handi, eliminating hot spots that can cause food to stick or burn unevenly. It also provides full induction compatibility — making this handi suitable for all modern cooktop types without any adapter.
Unique Pressure Indicator
The built-in pressure indicator clearly shows whether the handi is under pressure or at zero pressure — so you always know with certainty when it is safe to open the lid. This is an especially important feature for those who are new to pressure cooking or cooking for children and elderly family members.
Controlled Gasket-Release System
If steam pressure builds beyond safe cooking levels, the controlled gasket-release system safely vents the excess pressure from between the lid and body of the handi. This provides a critical second layer of protection beyond the weight valve, ensuring the handi never operates at dangerously high pressure.
Mini Metallic Safety Plug
As the final layer of protection, the mini metallic safety plug is engineered to melt and release steam if internal pressure and temperature reach a critically unsafe level — typically due to insufficient water or a blocked vent tube. It is a last-resort failsafe that ensures the handi remains safe under all conditions.
Durable Modern Handles
The handi features modern, ergonomically designed handles built for comfortable gripping, durability, and easy maintenance. The handles are firmly secured to the body of the handi, designed to withstand the weight and daily handling of regular pressure cooking without loosening over time.
Multi-Cooktop Compatible
Thanks to the Alpha Induction Base, this pressure handi works seamlessly on Gas, Radiant Ring, Solid Plate, Induction, and Ceramic cooktops — covering every type of cooking surface used in modern Indian homes, without requiring any additional accessories or adapters.
ISI Certified | 10 Year Warranty | Made in India
This handi carries the ISI mark under IS: 2347 — the Bureau of Indian Standards certification for pressure cookers — confirming it meets national safety and quality standards. It is backed by an industry-leading 10-year warranty and is proudly Made in India by TTK Prestige, a brand trusted in Indian kitchens for over 75 years.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What is the difference between this Pressure Handi and a regular Pressure Cooker?
The key difference is the shape. A regular pressure cooker has a straight cylindrical body, while this is a handi-shaped vessel with a wider, rounded belly that tapers towards the top — the traditional Indian handi form. This shape is better suited for cooking gravies, biryanis, kormas, and slow-cooked dishes where the rounded walls help with natural heat circulation and flavour development. All other features — pressure cooking mechanism, safety systems, and induction compatibility — remain the same as a standard cooker.
Q2. What makes this a "Svachh" pressure handi?
"Svachh" means clean, and the name refers to the unique deep lid design that traps starchy foam and water inside the lid rather than letting it spill down the sides of the handi. This keeps your cooking surface and the handi exterior significantly cleaner compared to standard pressure cookers or handis.
Q3. Is this handi suitable for making biryani and slow-cooked gravies?
Yes, the traditional handi shape is especially well-suited for dishes like biryani, dal makhani, nihari, korma, and other slow-cooked Indian preparations. The rounded form encourages even heat circulation and helps retain the moisture and flavours that make these dishes so rich and aromatic.
Q4. Will it work on my induction cooktop?
Yes. The patented Alpha Induction Base makes this handi fully compatible with induction cooktops. It also works on Gas, Radiant Ring, Solid Plate, and Ceramic cooktops — so it works with any type of stove you have at home.
Q5. What safety features does this handi have?
It has three safety systems: the Unique Pressure Indicator that shows when it is safe to open; the Controlled Gasket-Release System that vents excess steam between the lid and body; and the Mini Metallic Safety Plug that melts to release pressure in an extreme overpressure situation. Together, these three mechanisms make this one of the safest pressure handis available.
Q6. Is 3 Litres the right capacity for my family?
A 3 Litre pressure handi is well-suited for a family of 2 to 4 people. For everyday cooking of dal, rice, gravies, and sabzis in standard portions, 3 litres is a very practical and commonly preferred size for Indian households.
Q7. What grade of stainless steel is used? Is it safe for daily cooking?
The handi is made from 304 Grade stainless steel — one of the highest food-safe grades available. It is non-reactive with acidic ingredients, does not rust or corrode, and is safe for cooking all types of Indian dishes including tomato-heavy gravies, tamarind-based curries, and dairy-based preparations.
Q8. How do I know when to open the handi safely?
The Unique Pressure Indicator on the lid visually displays the pressure status inside. Wait until the indicator shows zero pressure before attempting to open the lid. Never force open the handi while pressure is still present inside.
Q9. Is this product ISI certified?
Yes. This pressure handi is ISI certified under IS: 2347 — the Indian Standard for domestic pressure cookers. The BIS certification mark (CM/L: 2351039) on the packaging confirms it has been independently tested and approved for safety and performance. Details can be verified at www.bis.gov.in.
Q10. What warranty is offered and who manufactures this product?
This handi comes with a 10-year warranty from TTK Prestige against manufacturing defects — one of the longest warranties offered on any pressure cooking product in India. It is Made in India by TTK Prestige Limited, a company with over 75 years of experience in designing trusted cookware for Indian kitchens.
