The ₹ math of protein: what actually earns S-tier
Every food card in Macro Polo is ranked by one number: grams of protein per rupee. It is the most honest number in nutrition, and it is brutal to marketing budgets.
The S-tier shelf
| Food | Protein | Price | g / ₹ |
|---|---|---|---|
| Soya chunks (100g) | 52g | ₹13 | 4.0 |
| Masoor dal (100g) | 24g | ₹11 | 2.2 |
| Chana (100g) | 19g | ₹9 | 2.1 |
| Peanuts (100g) | 26g | ₹14 | 1.9 |
A protein bar delivers 20g for ₹150. That is 0.13 g/₹, thirty times worse than soya chunks. It gets the F-tier stamp, and it earns it.
Why this matters
At Indian market prices, a full 150g-protein day costs about ₹120 if you shop the S-tier shelf. That is less than one delivery burger. The math has always been on your side; the app just does it for you, every day, at your local prices.
