This card is the decision shortcut. The detailed evidence and citations live in the six-axis cards below.

Sugar load
■ Don't eat trigger

The pack label lists 52 g sugar per 100g, which meets the v1 red threshold (≥10g/100g).

Processing tier
■ Don't eat trigger

Haldiram's Nagpur Adrak Chai is an ultra-processed food (NOVA 4) due to the presence of multiple industrial additives and processed ingredients such as maltodextrin, milk solids, and anticaking agent (E341).

Fat profile

The product contains 18. 2g of total fat per 100g, with **10.

5g of saturated fat per 100g**, which is within acceptable limits for saturated fat, considering ICMR recommendations (11% of energy from SFA).

Sodium

The pack label lists 35 mg sodium per 100g, which is below the v1 sodium watch threshold (<300mg/100g).

Marketing deception
■ Don't eat trigger

The marketing of Haldiram's Nagpur Adrak Chai uses phrases like 'made with natural ginger' and 'a refreshing cup of ginger tea' on platforms like BigBasket. This is deceptive because the product is ultra-processed and high in sugar, undermining claims of naturalness or healthfulness.

The claim 'No Added Colours' is also misleading given the overall ultra-processed nature of the product.

Regulatory history

No specific negative regulatory actions or violations related to this product were found in the FSSAI database or FSSAI product recall lists.
