What to know about Parachute Pure Coconut Oil
One clean ingredient, almost all of it fat
Parachute Pure Coconut Oil is an edible oil with one ingredient on the label: coconut oil. No percentage is printed because it is the whole list. It comes in a 600 ml bottle (546 g) labelled as a super saver pack, and buyers use it mainly as a cooking fat for tempering and frying.
Per 100 g it is 900 kcal and 100 g fat, of which 91 g is saturated. Protein, carbohydrate, sugar and sodium are all 0 g. The pack's serve is 10 g, about three teaspoons, which gives 90 kcal and 9.1 g saturated fat. The bottle holds roughly 54 of those servings.
The pack promises 100% pure coconut oil, and the ingredient list agrees. What it does not tell you is how the fat is made up: 91 g saturated, 7.1 g monounsaturated and 1.9 g polyunsaturated per 100 g, with no trans fat declared. CleanPlate scores it EB5.
Why Parachute Pure Coconut Oil scores EB5
Nutrition is an E because there is no protein, fibre or vitamins, only fat. Ingredients are a B for a one-item list with no additives, and risk is a 5 on 91 g saturated fat per 100 g.
Very low nutrient density

- Energy
- 900 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why E
Protein, carbohydrate and fibre are all 0 g per 100 g, and no vitamins or minerals are declared. The 900 kcal per 100 g come entirely from fat, so there is nothing to earn nutrition points.
The fat is mostly saturated: 91 g, with 7.1 g monounsaturated and 1.9 g polyunsaturated. Omega-3 is 0 g.
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
The list is a single ingredient, coconut oil. No additive, flavour, colour or hydrogenated fat is present, and trans fat is declared as 0 g, so nothing costs ingredient points.
No front-of-pack promise is hollow: the pure coconut oil claim matches the list. The only small gap is that no percentage is printed, which is natural for a one-item list.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
Very high risk
- Added sugar
- 0 g
- Sodium
- 0 mg
- Saturated fat
- 91 g
- Trans fat
- 0 g
03 Load risk: why 5
Saturated fat drives the grade: 91 g per 100 g, more than 18 times the 5 g high line. A 10 g serve has 9.1 g, which the pack prints as 41.4% of the daily value.
Energy adds to it at 900 kcal per 100 g, 90 kcal per serve. Sugar, sodium and trans fat are all 0 g, so they play no part.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Does Parachute Pure Coconut Oil live up to its claims?
The pure coconut oil and no-preservatives claims hold, since coconut oil is the only ingredient. The market-leader claim and the quality-test numbers are worth a careful read.
- On the packHolds
“100% Pure Coconut Oil”
The ingredient list is coconut oil and nothing else, and no additive is declared.
- Retail listingHolds
“Contains no added preservatives”
No preservative or other additive appears in the ingredient list, which is coconut oil alone.
- On the packBe careful
“India's No.1 Coconut Oil”
This is a market-share claim, backed on the pack by Kantar and NielsenIQ data. It says nothing about nutrition: the oil is 91 g saturated fat per 100 g.
- On the packBe careful
“85 quality tests”
The front shows 85 quality tests in one place and 27 in the hands-free process text. Both are printed as such, and the pack does not explain the difference.
What's in Parachute Pure Coconut Oil?

The ingredient list, read for you
The list is one line: coconut oil. There is nothing else in the bottle, so no sweetener, flavour, colour or preservative, and no percentage is needed. Its job is simply to be the fat you cook with.
Ingredients to watch

What it doesn’t have
- No protein, fibre, vitamins or minerals are declared, as expected for a pure oil.

- Most adultsRarely

Recipes with Parachute Pure Coconut Oil
Use it by the teaspoon for tempering, shallow frying or stir-fries. One teaspoon is about 3 g, around 30 kcal, so small measured amounts keep the saturated fat in check.
Dal tempering
Heat one teaspoon, about 3 g and 30 kcal, for the mustard seeds and curry leaves instead of a larger pour.
Thin-film stir-fry
Brush a non-stick pan with a teaspoon of oil rather than pouring it in; at 90 kcal per 10 g, a lighter hand matters.
Coconut-flavoured vegetables
Finish steamed beans or cabbage with a half teaspoon for aroma, a small amount of saturated fat next to the 9.1 g in a full serve.
