01 Nutrition density: why E
Protein is 0 g and carbohydrate is 0 g per 100 g, so there is no protein or fibre to earn credit. The grade rests on vitamin E, 23 mg per 100 g, and it does not lift the score.
An oil is all fat by nature, so the lowest nutrition grade says more about the food type than about this brand.
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.

The grade stops at a B because no percentage or origin detail is declared for the oil.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.

03 Load risk: why 4
Energy is the biggest driver: 898 kcal per 100 g, which is about 82 kcal in a 2 tsp serve. Saturated fat adds to it at 8 g per 100 g, above the 5 g high line, about 0.7 g per serve.
Sugar, sodium and trans fat are all 0 g, so they play no part. The risk grade reflects how concentrated the energy is, not any one harmful ingredient.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

What to know about Dabur Cold Pressed Mustard Oil
A single-ingredient oil that is all fat and energy
Dabur Cold Pressed Mustard Oil is a 1 L bottle (about 910 g) of mustard seed oil, and nothing else is on the ingredient list. It is bought for cooking, tempering and everyday Indian dishes where the pungent flavour and aroma of mustard are wanted. No percentage is declared, as the list has a single item.
The panel is the profile of a pure oil: 898 kcal and 99.8 g fat per 100 g, with no protein, carbohydrate, sugar or sodium. Of that fat, 8 g is saturated, 65 g is monounsaturated and 26.8 g is polyunsaturated, including 10.6 g omega-3 ALA and 14.2 g omega-6. A serve of 2 tsp (about 9.1 g) gives about 82 kcal, 0.7 g saturated fat and 2.1 mg vitamin E.
The pack leans on omega-3, antioxidants and an ALA and cholesterol statement. The omega-3 and the vitamin E are real, but the ALA benefit needs a daily intake of 2 g, which is more oil than a normal serve. CleanPlate scores it EB4.
