What causes dark sunken patches on fruit?

Dark, sunken, water-soaked patches on fruit indicate anthracnose fungus (common on mangoes, tomatoes, chillies) or blossom end rot (calcium deficiency). For anthracnose spray copper fungicide. For blossom end rot, ensure consistent watering and apply crushed eggshells or a calcium foliar spray to your plants.
