Marketing Claims
Most claims like '100% Whole Wheat', '0% Maida', and 'No Palmolein Oil' are factually supported by the ingredients list. However, the claim 'Enriched with vitamins' is not substantiated with specific vitamin details in the nutritional information panel, making it unverifiable for the consumer and therefore questionable.
