Nutritional Summary
The product scores poorly due to its high concentration of added sugar, which is the third ingredient on the list. A single 9g serving contains 1.5g of sugar. While it is fat-free and low in calories per serving, the reliance on sugar and the presence of preservatives (INS 211) and thickeners lower its overall health score according to FSSAI guidelines that encourage limiting intake of added sugars and processed ingredients.

Healthy Recipe Ideas
Healthy Kathi Roll Sauce
Mix 1 tablespoon of Maggi Ketchup with 2 tablespoons of thick yogurt (dahi) and a pinch of chaat masala. Spread this mixture inside a whole wheat roti before adding your grilled paneer or chicken and vegetable filling. Roll it up and enjoy.
Health Benefits
This recipe reduces the sugar-per-serving by mixing with protein-rich yogurt, creating a more balanced and flavorful sauce for your roll.
Baked Vegetable Dip
In an oven-safe dish, mix chopped vegetables like bell peppers, onions, and corn with a tablespoon of Maggi Ketchup and a teaspoon of oregano. Top with a little cheese and bake until vegetables are tender. Serve with whole-wheat crackers or vegetable sticks.
Health Benefits
Combines the ketchup with nutrient-dense vegetables, providing vitamins and fiber while using the ketchup as a flavor enhancer.
Quick Masala Oats Topping
Prepare a bowl of savory masala oats. Just before serving, swirl in half a tablespoon of Maggi Ketchup. This adds a tangy and sweet flavor dimension to the oats without significantly increasing sugar content.
Health Benefits
Enhances the taste of high-fiber masala oats with a minimal amount of ketchup, making a healthy breakfast more enjoyable.
Additive Analysis
The additives used (Preservative INS 211 - Sodium Benzoate, Thickeners INS 1422 & INS 415, Acidity Regulator INS 260) are approved by FSSAI and generally considered safe for consumption within permissible limits. However, the presence of a Class II preservative is a point of consideration for consumers preferring natural products.

Marketing Claims
The claims are largely compliant. 'Rich tomato' is subjective but based on 24.5% tomato paste. The 'No.1' claim is substantiated with a footnote referencing a specific comparative test, which is transparent. Other claims are standard marketing puffery. The marketing focuses on taste and convenience rather than health, which is accurate for this product category.
