The Portuguese during their rule in Goa, named this mango as "Malcorado" meaning Poor coloured. The word "Mal" translates to "Bad" while "Cor" translates to "Colour" in the Portuguese language. With time, it became Mankurad aamo (mango) in Konkani[6]

It was awarded the Geographical Indication status tag from the Geographical Indications Registry under the Union Government of India. in 1 August 2023 (valid until 13 December 2030).[8]

All Goa Mango Growers Association from Panaji, proposed the geographical indication (GI) registration of Goa Mankurad Mango. After filing the application in 2020, the fruit was granted the GI tag in 2023 by the Geographical Indication Registry in Chennai, making the name "Goa Mankurad Mango" exclusive to the mangoes grown in the region. It thus became the first mango variety from Goa and the 8th type of goods from Goa to earn the GI tag.[9][10][11][12][13]
