Additive Analysis
The product contains Acidity Regulators (330 - Citric Acid, 331(iii) - Trisodium Citrate), Stabilizers (414 - Gum Arabic, 471 - Mono- and di-glycerides of fatty acids), and a Class II Preservative (211 - Sodium Benzoate). While these additives are permitted by FSSAI within safe limits, their regular consumption is not ideal. Sodium Benzoate, in particular, can be a concern for sensitive individuals.

Marketing Claims
The marketing claims are compliant and not misleading. The phrase 'Lime 'n' Lemoni' accurately describes the flavor profile of the beverage. The packaging does not make any unsubstantiated health or nutritional claims.
