The fish has been known to reach 1.5 meters in length and weigh 1.4 kilograms.[2] It is a freshwater fish usually found in rivers,[2] and it is sometimes seen in paddy fields.[3] It spawns during the monsoon around July and August.[3]

This fish is reared in aquaculture.[2] It can be reared with some other carps, but it tends to compete with certain species.[4]

The species is widespread and common in some areas, and it is not considered threatened on a large scale. It may face potential threats from overexploitation and degradation of its habitat.[3]
