Nutritional Summary
The product receives an 'AVERAGE' rating. While it is fortified with vitamins and minerals and has zero trans fat, its primary ingredient is refined wheat flour (Maida), offering minimal dietary fiber. The sugar content per serving (5.91g in an assumed 27g serving) is moderately high for a product often consumed as a light snack. The lack of a specified serving size on the packaging makes portion control difficult for consumers. Its profile is typical of a processed snack rather than a health food.

Additive Analysis
The additives used, including raising agents (503(ii), 500(ii)), emulsifier (472e), dough conditioner (223), and colour (150d), are permitted by FSSAI and generally considered safe within prescribed limits. However, the presence of sulphites (223, 150d) may pose a risk to individuals with sulphite sensitivity.

Marketing Claims
The marketing claims are factually compliant with the product's nutritional information. The '10 Vitamins + Minerals' claim is supported by the fortification listed in the ingredients and nutrition panel. The 'Zero Transfat' claim is also verified by the nutrition facts. However, these claims may create a 'health halo,' potentially misleading consumers into thinking the product is healthier than it is, given its high content of refined flour and sugar.
