Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed

This snack product is primarily composed of cereal meals, offering a base of carbohydrates. While peanut oil is listed, it is in trace amounts, but the presence of peanuts as a major allergen is a critical concern for individuals with peanut allergies.

Ingredient Concerns safety database

Sources cited below may be Indian (FSSAI) or international (EU, US, WHO, IARC) — an international classification or law is evidence, not an Indian regulatory finding.

Peanuts

Peanut allergy is one of the most common and severe food allergies, capable of causing anaphylaxis — a potentially fatal allergic reaction. Even trace amounts (cross-contamination) can trigger reactions. Peanut allergy is usually lifelong and requires strict avoidance. Always carry an epinephrine auto-injector if allergic.

Regulatory & scientific authority Source: FSSAI; FDA; Allergy & Asthma Network

Peanuts: regulation, sources and other products →

Decode Label Analysis

Contains Peanuts (Peanut Oil) which is a major allergen and can cause life-threatening anaphylaxis in sensitive individuals. This is a declarable allergen under FSSAI Labelling & Display Regulations 2020.

This lack of transparency makes it difficult for consumers to identify potential allergens or additives they may wish to avoid.

Claim check

Front-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.

?
"NO ARTIFICIAL COLOURS & FLAVOURS" Can't verify

The label declares Colour without naming what it is, so the list cannot establish whether this product contains a synthetic colour.

?
"GREEN CHUTNEY STYLE" Can't verify

The ingredient list includes spices and condiments, herbs (parsley), and tamarind powder, which could contribute to a green chutney flavor, but the specific 'green chutney style' cannot be verified from the ingredients alone.

Spices and Condiments Herb (Parsley) Tamarind Powder
✓
"MADE WITH RICE, CORN & DAL" Checks out

The ingredients list Rice Meal (43%), Corn Meal (22%), and Gram Meal (0.5%), which is dal.

Trace amounts: some named ingredients appear in token quantities or low in the list. At these concentrations a meaningful benefit is unlikely, and their front-of-pack prominence may not reflect their level in the formulation.

In label order — normally largest quantity first. Select a row for the full write-up and sources.

These are major food allergens named on the ingredient list. They are a risk only to people allergic to them — not a general-population safety issue — so they do not lower the safety score. Anyone with the allergy should avoid this product, and check the pack’s own allergen statement.

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.
