What to know about Aashirvaad Svasti Paneer Creamy Soft
A soft paneer with more fat than protein
A 200 g vacuum pack of fresh paneer made from milk solids, set with vinegar and a firming agent (INS 509, calcium chloride), and kept with a preservative (INS 234, nisin, described on the pack as a naturally sourced substance). No percentages are declared. It is bought for curries, bhurji and tikka, where a block of soft paneer is the main ingredient.
Per 100 g you get 280 kcal, 17.5 g protein, 22.1 g fat, 2.7 g carbohydrate, 0 g sugar and 475 mg calcium. The pack prints no serve, so a typical 50 g serve is used here: about 140 kcal, 8.75 g protein and 11 g fat. Fat gives most of the energy.
The front promises creamy and soft, and the four-item list is short and plain. Saturated fat and sodium are not printed on the panel, so those two numbers are unknown. CleanPlate scores it BB2.
Why Aashirvaad Svasti Paneer Creamy Soft scores BB2
Nutrition is a B on 17.5 g protein and 475 mg calcium per 100 g. Ingredients are a B, with one small cost for the firming agent. Risk is a 2, driven by energy alone.

01 Nutrition density: why B
Protein is 17.5 g per 100 g, about a quarter of the calories, and it comes almost entirely from the milk solids. That earns full protein credit.
Calcium at 475 mg per 100 g adds a micronutrient bonus. There is no fibre, and no other vitamins or minerals are declared.
Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

02 Ingredient integrity: why B
Only four items are listed: milk solids, vinegar, a firming agent and a preservative. There is no flavouring, no added sugar and no hydrogenated fat, and the label has no hollow promises.
The firming agent, calcium chloride (INS 509), costs ingredient points. The preservative, nisin (INS 234), costs none. Milk solids carry no percentage, which is the only gap in the list.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
Low risk
- Total sugar
- 0 g
03 Load risk: why 2
The risk grade is a 2 and rests on energy: 280 kcal per 100 g. Sugar is 0 g, so it plays no part.
Saturated fat and sodium are not printed on the panel, so they do not move the number. Fat is 22.1 g per 100 g in total, and most of it is likely to be saturated, but the pack does not say.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.
