Additive Analysis
The additives used (INS260, INS330, INS322(i), INS415, INS319) are approved by FSSAI. While the product claims 'No Preservatives added', it contains acidity regulators and antioxidants which act as preservatives. These are generally considered safe within permissible limits.

Marketing Claims
The claim 'No Preservatives added' is questionable. While technically true that the additives used are classified as 'Acidity Regulators' and 'Antioxidants' by FSSAI, these ingredients perform a preservative function. This could be misleading to consumers seeking products free from any shelf-life extending additives. The 'No. 1' claim is likely based on specific market data and is a common marketing tactic.
