01 Nutrition density: why E
Protein is 7.9 g per 100 g, about 1.7 g per 100 kcal, and the makhana is the biggest contributor. That is low for the calories, so it earns only half the usual protein credit.
No fibre, vitamins or minerals are declared, so nothing else lifts the grade. Carbohydrate is 72.2 g per 100 g, with 0 g sugar.
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.

Makhana is listed first at 83%, with the ghee and salt percentages declared, which keeps the label clear.

03 Load risk: why 4
Saturated fat is the biggest driver: 9.7 g per 100 g, nearly double the 5 g high line, from the cow ghee. One 25 g serve has 2.4 g, which the pack prints as 11% of the daily value.
Sodium follows at 801 mg per 100 g, 200 mg per serve, then energy at 461 kcal per 100 g. Sugar and trans fat are both 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.
