Rs. 446 (300 g) Buy on Flipkart Before you buy: Prices were checked on 7 Oct 2026 and change often; "Check listing" means the price wasn't readable. Claims such as "no maida" or "no added sugar" come from each brand's or retailer's own listing, so read the label yourself. Amazon and Siddhagiri pages couldn't be opened for checking, so those entries rely on the listing title. Millet and baked snacks are still calorie-dense, so portions matter.
