Most types of plants (fruits) can be transported without agreement and special permits. Annexes 1, 2 and 3 (Convention on International Trade in Species of Wild Flora and Fauna) regulate what can be imported (exported) and what cannot.
Maybe first you need to find out if it is possible to transport?
Goa (India) is an exotic country - they can be taken away at customs control when flying home ...

Passion fruit is not a wild flora. I don’t know how from Goa (I didn’t bring any fruit), but from Tai you can bring everything except durian - (because of the smell), but it is also sold in dutik.
Carried: 1 hand luggage - special boxes
2 Just hand luggage
3 Box in a suitcase - so as not to choke, and in luggage.
4 Special box in luggage.
Once in Goa, I did not notice a particular abundance of fruits. Well, you can bring a watermelon, in February - cool! :)

Last year, in Dobolim, a ripe (not green) coconut was taken from us from a manual steal. They said "no" and no explanation why not.

Passion fruit is now sold in any large supermarket, and it is ripe and tasty. I really do not advise you to suffer with transportation. Take in luggage or hand luggage - it depends on the availability of space in the luggage, you also need to pack it so as not to crush.
Coconut was not allowed in hand luggage, because there is a liquid inside with a volume of more than 100 ml allowed.

Oh, sorry, I don’t know why they didn’t let the ripe coconut go through, there is already so much liquid there. Maybe they considered it a weapon)))).

I don’t know if the coconut was recognized as a weapon or something else, but it’s pointless to argue at the control.

Twice in my life I managed to talk control: once to a large bottle of shampoo, the other to a wrench.
аватар V.A.S.
(I always knew that a screwdriver in a lady's purse is not a joke, but a useful thing)
They don’t let the coconut in, explaining that you can’t scan it with an x-ray, what if there is smuggling there? We carried gutted shells in a suitcase, we wanted to make a bird house - no questions arose.

By the way, instead of a screwdriver, the last time eyebrow tweezers helped very well))). The screw fastening of the sandals came off.

Coconuts are officially banned, if I'm not mistaken, there are corresponding inscriptions and pictures at the airport. The rest of the fruit can be taken out. There have never been any problems. It is better to carry in a box. If there is not much hand luggage in the cabin.

In Thailand, I also saw badges forbidding durian and mangosteen.
Durian, apparently because of the smell, and ants sit in crowds in mangosteens.

You can not coconut, watermelon and melon. Everything else is possible. The plastic box is stuffed with fruits under 5 kg. Wrapped with stitch film and in hand luggage. Rides without problems. it does not show through in the scanner and was previously used to transport drugs. watermelon and melon explode at the height.
