Vijaya, cannabis, CBD & THC · questions, answered

Straight answers on legality, the NDPS Act, AYUSH licensing, CBD/THC, prescriptions, strains and how BUNK works. Plain language, leaf-anchored, lab-verified.

Is Vijaya (cannabis leaf) legal in India?
Yes. Vijaya · the Ayurvedic name for Cannabis sativa L. leaf · is legal in India when sold as an AYUSH-licensed Ayurvedic formulation made from the leaf. Under the NDPS Act 1985 the controlled parts of the plant are the flowering tops (ganja) and resin (charas); the leaves and seeds are expressly excluded. BUNK products are made only from leaf extract, never resin, and are available on a valid prescription from a registered medical practitioner for adults 21+.
Is cannabis legal in India?
Partly. The cannabis plant is not banned outright · the NDPS Act 1985 controls only the flowering or fruiting tops (ganja) and the resin (charas), while the leaves and seeds are excluded from the Act's definition of cannabis. That leaf exclusion is the basis on which AYUSH-licensed Vijaya (Cannabis sativa L. leaf) formulations operate, while recreational ganja and charas remain prohibited. BUNK is a leaf-extract product, prescription-gated, 21+, and not for recreational use. Regulatory treatment can vary by state; this is general information, not legal advice.
Is THC legal in India?
THC occurs naturally in trace amounts in full-spectrum Vijaya (cannabis leaf) extract, which is permitted as an AYUSH-licensed Ayurvedic formulation taken under medical supervision. The NDPS Act controls cannabis by plant part · leaves and seeds are excluded · and leaf formulations are available on prescription. BUNK does not sell isolated or high-potency THC products; our gummies and oil are full-spectrum leaf extracts, 21+ and prescription-gated. Exact cannabinoid figures are confirmed on each batch's Certificate of Analysis.
What is the difference between CBD and THC?
CBD (cannabidiol) and THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) are two compounds found in the cannabis plant; both occur naturally in full-spectrum Vijaya leaf extract. CBD is non-intoxicating, while THC is the better-known active compound · in a full-spectrum leaf extract they work together (the entourage effect). BUNK's products are full-spectrum Vijaya leaf extracts for adults 21+ under medical supervision, not for recreational use. See each product's Certificate of Analysis for its specific cannabinoid profile.
Is this weed? Will BUNK get me high?
No · BUNK is not recreational cannabis. Our products are AYUSH-licensed Vijaya (Cannabis sativa L. leaf) wellness formulations made from the leaf, not the flowering tops or resin, intended for adults 21+ under medical supervision. They are built around mood and ritual · pick your feeling · not intoxication. Every batch is third-party lab tested and its full cannabinoid profile is on the Certificate of Analysis.
What is Vijaya, and how is it different from cannabis?
Vijaya is the Ayurvedic name for the cannabis (Cannabis sativa L.) leaf, used in traditional Indian medicine for centuries. Cannabis refers to the whole plant; under the NDPS Act the controlled parts are the flowering tops (ganja) and resin (charas), while the leaf · Vijaya · is excluded. BUNK uses only Vijaya leaf extract, never resin, formulated as an AYUSH-licensed Ayurvedic preparation for adults 21+ under medical supervision.
What does the NDPS Act say about Vijaya leaf products?
Under the NDPS Act 1985, cannabis is defined as charas (resin) and ganja (the flowering or fruiting tops) · the leaves and seeds of the plant are specifically excluded. This leaf exclusion is the legal basis for AYUSH-licensed Vijaya (Cannabis sativa L. leaf) formulations. BUNK products are made from leaf extract only, never resin, sold on prescription to adults 21+. This is general information, not legal advice, and regulatory treatment can vary by state.
What does full-spectrum Vijaya leaf extract mean?
Full-spectrum means the extract keeps the natural range of compounds found in the Vijaya (cannabis) leaf · multiple cannabinoids and terpenes together · rather than an isolated single compound. It describes the composition of the extract, not a promised result. BUNK's gummies and oil use full-spectrum Vijaya leaf extract; the exact cannabinoid profile for each batch is listed on its Certificate of Analysis. All products are AYUSH-licensed, 21+ and prescription-gated.
What does AYUSH-licensed actually mean for a Vijaya product?
AYUSH is India's Ministry of Ayush, which governs Ayurveda and other traditional systems of medicine. An AYUSH-licensed Vijaya formulation is a cannabis-leaf Ayurvedic product made under a state AYUSH manufacturing licence, intended to be taken under medical supervision. That licensing is what makes a Vijaya leaf product a legitimate, regulated Ayurvedic preparation in India · not a supplement or a grey-area product. BUNK is AYUSH-licensed, Schedule E-1 classified, available only on prescription. 21+.
Do you need a prescription to buy BUNK Vijaya gummies or oil?
Yes. BUNK products are made from Vijaya (Cannabis sativa L.) leaf extract, a Schedule E-1 Ayurvedic substance, so they are available only on a valid prescription from a registered medical practitioner and only to adults 21+. We offer a free doctor-consultation path so you can obtain a prescription before ordering · it takes about five minutes. The caution to be taken under medical supervision applies to every product.
Is BUNK third-party lab tested?
Yes. Every batch of BUNK gummies and oil is third-party lab tested, and the Certificate of Analysis (COA) lists that batch's cannabinoid and terpene profile · including any CBD and THC figures. We keep cannabinoid specifics on the COA rather than in marketing copy, so what you see is verified per batch. Ask for your batch's COA at bunkstore.com. AYUSH-licensed, prescription-only.
What are Super Lemon Haze and Super OG · and why do they matter?
They are Vijaya (Cannabis sativa L.) strains · distinct botanical varieties, each with its own character. BUNK's serving line is built on strain-specific Vijaya leaf extract, the way origin shapes a single-origin coffee. Super Lemon Haze leans daytime; Super OG leans evening. Prescription-only, 21+; your doctor confirms the fit. Our strain names describe the terpene profile of the same AYUSH-licensed Vijaya leaf extract · the flavour and character, never a different licence.
What is 15mg vs 50mg active · which serving is right for me?
BUNK's 15mg active serving is the lighter starting point; 50mg active is the fuller expression. Start low and go slow. Which is right is a decision for your prescribing doctor · and BUNK offers a free doctor consultation if you are starting fresh. Serving sizes are printed on every product. Prescription-only, 21+.
How long do BUNK gummies and oil take to work, and how long do effects last?
It varies by person and format. Gummies are eaten and digested, so they typically take longer than the oil; Emergency Bunk oil is taken sublingually (a drop under the tongue) for a faster onset. Onset simply describes how quickly a serving is felt · individual response differs, so start low, follow your doctor's guidance, and don't re-take too soon. 21+, under medical supervision.
What is The Proxy Bunk · and who is it for?
The Proxy is a slim, clear-cassette pack of 3 gummies · BUNK's entry format. ₹699 for 15mg active, ₹799 for 50mg active. The low-commitment way to get acquainted with BUNK's premium full-spectrum Vijaya (Cannabis sativa L. leaf) extract. Prescription-only, 21+.
What is Mass Bunk · the everyday format?
Mass Bunk is the Walkman-box format · 10 gummies, built for regular, intentional use. Rs 2,199 for 15mg active, Rs 2,999 for 50mg active. Same premium full-spectrum Vijaya leaf extract as the Proxy, in the everyday size. Prescription-only, 21+.
What is Emergency Bunk · the oil format?
Emergency Bunk is BUNK's full-spectrum Vijaya leaf extract in a clean glass applicator · 1ml at Rs 3,500, 3ml at Rs 7,500, taken sublingually at 50mg per drop. A different format, same AYUSH-licensed, prescription-grade Vijaya (Sativa L.) extract, for those who prefer a non-gummy serving. Prescription-only, 21+.
What do the mood names · Flow, Social, Disconnect · actually mean?
They are curated serving configurations, not medical categories. Flow is Sour Apple 15mg ft. Super Lemon Haze; Social is Mango 50mg ft. Super Lemon Haze; Disconnect is Blueberry 50mg ft. Super OG. The name signals the occasion and the Vijaya strain. Your doctor confirms the fit. 21+.
