Nutritional Summary
The product scores points for using wholewheat flour instead of maida and for being free of trans-fat and cholesterol. However, its health rating is brought down by a high added sugar content, with a single 50g serving containing 11g of sugar (22% of the FSSAI's recommended daily allowance). The presence of preservatives and artificial flavouring also detracts from its overall health profile, making it suitable as an occasional indulgence rather than a healthy snack.

Marketing Claims
The claims 'Zero Maida', 'Zero Palm Oil', 'Zero Trans Fat', 'Zero Cholesterol', and 'Zero Artificial Colours' are accurate based on the ingredient and nutrition labels. However, the claim 'Zero Preservatives' is factually incorrect and misleading, as the ingredients list clearly declares two preservatives (INS 202, INS 282). The 'Source of Protein' claim is weak, as 3g per serving is not a significant amount.
