Decode Label Safety Score
How we got 5.5 ShowHide
Rates 9.0/10 on the rest of its formulation — the cap is a targeted caution, not a problem with the whole product.
Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed
This shampoo features a blend of traditional botanical and mineral ingredients known for their hair and scalp benefits. However, the majority of the product is declared only as a "Lotion Base" without further ingredient disclosure, which significantly limits a full safety assessment. While the disclosed active ingredients are generally well-regarded, the lack of transparency for the base formulation means potential irritants or sensitizers cannot be ruled out. It is generally suitable for most users, but individuals with sensitive skin or allergies may wish to exercise caution due to the undisclosed base.

Traditional botanicals and mineral, but base ingredients are undisclosed
This shampoo contains Gandhak (sulfur), Neem, Bhringraj, and Ritha, which are traditionally used for hair and scalp health. However, the main "Lotion Base" is not specified, meaning most of the product's ingredients are unknown. This lack of transparency makes it difficult to fully assess for potential irritants or allergens in the base formulation.

Claim check
1 claim not supported by label dataFront-of-pack marketing claims checked against this product's actual ingredients and nutrition. "Can't verify" means the label does not provide enough information to check the claim — it is not the same as the claim being false.
The ingredient list includes 'Lotion Base-Q.S.' and 'Gandhak Element-5.0%', which are not botanical extracts.
The label does not provide information or clinical studies to substantiate the anti-dandruff claim.
The ingredient list does not explicitly differentiate between shampoo and conditioner components, nor does it list ingredients typically associated with conditioning agents.
The label does not provide information or clinical studies to substantiate the claim of fighting dandruff.
The term 'Ayurvedic Recipe' is a designation that cannot be confirmed or denied from the ingredient list alone.
Neem Bark is listed in the ingredients.
Read straight from the back-of-pack photo — quantities, sections and any disguised terms, so the small print can’t hide behind the marketing.

About this analysis: Based on declared label information and available evidence. Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test products, and a score is not a regulatory determination or medical advice.
Disclaimer: Safety scores are Decode Label-generated assessments based on publicly available regulatory data (FSSAI, WHO, EFSA, IARC) and peer-reviewed research. They are not a substitute for professional medical advice, and they are not a regulatory determination, a laboratory safety certification or a medical diagnosis. Ingredient safety can vary by individual health conditions, concentration, and usage context. Decode Label is an independent information service and scores every brand by the same rules. No brand pays for or influences its score. Our founder also founded the personal-care brand Botani Bestie (see our story); its products are scored exactly like everyone else's. Data limitations: This assessment is based on the information declared on the product label and the evidence sources above — Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test this product. Ingredient concentrations, sourcing and manufacturing can vary between batches and are not always disclosed. A finding that is not shown here means it was not identified from the available label information, not that it has been ruled out.
