Karanjin is a furanoflavonol, a type of flavonoid. It is obtained from the seeds of the karanja tree ( Millettia pinnata or Pongamia glabra Vent.), a tree growing wild in south India. Karanjin is an acaricide and insecticide.^{[ citation needed ]} Karanjin is reported to have nitrification inhibitory properties.^[1]
