Marketing Claims
The claims 'Transfat free' and 'No Added Preservatives' are supported by the nutritional information and ingredient list. The 'Protein source' claim is reasonable. However, the 'Dietary fibre source' claim is not substantiated with a value in the nutritional facts panel, which makes it questionable under FSSAI labeling regulations.
