    You get coconut oil here too...why do you want to carry something that you are not sure about and something you can easily buy here?

    Yes you can carry, I suggest put it in the luggage bag, I mean do not carry in flight in ur carry-on handbag, Wrap it in wooden or metal container and let it go in luggage.

    I myself got navratna and dabur amla hair oil from India :)

    any liquids more than 8 ounces(depends on the airline) have to go into check in luggage...so i think you can package it well so that it does not leak if the luggage is thrown, pushed, rolled(just in case) and put it in check in baggage...
