Your BMI read on Indian cut-offs rather than the Western ones, your daily calorie and protein targets, and a sample vegetarian day you can actually eat. It runs inside your own phone or computer — nothing you type is sent to us or stored anywhere.
One form, filled in once, gives you both readings below it — your BMI and your daily targets come from the same height, weight and activity, so there is one calculator here, not two.

BMI grades follow the revised Indian consensus on obesity in Asian Indians (2025);
nutrient limits follow the ICMR-NIN Dietary Guidelines for Indians, 2024.
Calorie estimates use the Mifflin–St Jeor equation.
The 25 and 30 thresholds most calculators use were set on European and American bodies. Indians carry more fat and less muscle at the same BMI, and the risk of diabetes and heart disease starts climbing earlier. The Indian grade ladder puts the normal range at 18.5 to 23, and treats 23 upward as the first grade rather than as healthy.
Waist matters as much as the number. Above 90 cm for a man, or 80 cm for a woman, is the point the Indian guidance flags regardless of what BMI says. Fill in the waist field if you have a tape — it is the single most useful thing on the form.
| Grade | BMI |
|---|---|
| Normal | 18.5 – 22.9 |
| Grade I — overweight | 23 – 24.9 |
| Grade II — overweight | 25 – 27.5 |
| Grade III — obesity | 27.6 – 32.4 |
| Grade IV — obesity | 32.5 and above |
Revised consensus on obesity in Asian Indians. A BMI is a ratio of height to weight and nothing more — it cannot tell muscle from fat, and it says nothing about a specific person's health. Use it as a prompt to ask a question, not as an answer.
The calculator works out roughly how many calories you burn in a day, adjusts for whether you want to lose, hold or gain, and turns that into a protein, carbohydrate and fat target. Protein is the one most Indian vegetarian diets fall short on, so it is called out separately.
It then lays out a sample vegetarian day built from ordinary Indian foods rather than imported powders, and five rules that do most of the work. Nothing is sold to you at the end of it, and no supplement is recommended.
A number on a page cannot tell you what to do about it. If something here has unsettled you, start with a doctor — and if you want energy work alongside whatever they advise, these are the sessions people usually come to us for.
