While indigenous to the wider Indian subcontinent, it does not naturally form part of Gujarat's wild climax dry deciduous, thorny, or scrub forest formations. It has been cultivated across Gujarat for millennia in temple premises, medicinal homestead gardens (Vadas), and specialized dryland orchards across Saurashtra (Junagadh, Bhavnagar), Kachchh, and Central Gujarat (Vadodara, Anand)

Citrus medica is one of the three primary true ancestral species. It is native to the sub-Himalayan valleys, foothills of Northeast India (Assam, Meghalaya, Garo Hills), and the Western Ghats.
