Curd (Dahi) calories
प्रति वाटी, प्रति 100 g नाही
The short answer
एक वाटी, वजन केलेली
90kcal 1 वाटी — असे धरले 150 g — has about 90 calories, with 4.7 g protein, 4.5 g carbohydrate and 6.0 g fat. Two come to 180 kcal, three to 270 kcal.
Per 100 g, curd (dahi) carries 60 kcal आणि 3.1 g protein.

From a table row to one katori
- Read the per-100 g row for curd (dahi) out of the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 — analysed on Indian samples, so Indian wheat and Indian milk are not swapped for American ones. It gives 60 kcal आणि 3.1 g protein per 100 g.
- Weigh what is actually served. This site enters 1 katori at 150 g (set from full-cream cow milk, unsweetened). That weight is the number other calorie sites decline to state, and it is where their answers stop being answers.
- Multiply, linearly, and print the working: 60 × 150 ÷ 100 = 90 kcal per katori. Nothing is rounded up, adjusted or smoothed — two katori are exactly twice one.
- Reconcile the energy against its own macronutrients with Atwater factors on every build. A row more than 15% away from 4P + 4C + 9F (20% above 6 g of fibre) stops the build rather than shipping.
per katori = per 100 g × serving grams ÷ 100 Curd (Dahi) = 60 kcal × 150 g ÷ 100 = 90 kcal energy check = 4P + 4C + 9F ±15% (±20% if fibre ≥ 6 g)

Kept in kilocalories — the "calories" printed on a packet. Carbohydrate is available carbohydrate. Fibre is entered on its own line and is counted in neither the carbohydrate column nor the energy figure.
The 100 g column, kept for the record
Because every other site quotes it, and because you should be able to check our arithmetic against theirs.
| Nutrient | Per 100 g | Per 1 katori (150 g) |
|---|---|---|
| Energy | 60 kcal | 90 kcal |
| Protein | 3.1 g | 4.7 g |
| Carbohydrate (available) | 3.0 g | 4.5 g |
| Fat | 4.0 g | 6.0 g |
| Dietary fibre | 0.0 g | 0.0 g |

What it takes to burn off 1 katori of curd (dahi)
Minutes of activity for a 70 kg adult to spend 90 kcal, using MET values from the 2024 Adult Compendium of Physical Activities. This is a scale check, not a licence — appetite rises with activity and the two do not cancel neatly.

Calculated as MET × 3.5 × 70 kg ÷ 200 kcal per minute. Full working on the method page, and the whole activity dataset at BurnLab.
Where curd (dahi) sits in an Indian plate
Among the 16 raita, chutney & sides entries on this site, curd (dahi) ranks 3rd for protein (3.1 g per 100 g) and 11th for energy density (60 kcal per 100 g). The protein leader in the group is lehsun chutney at 5.0 g.
Protein supplies 21% of its energy, which is high for an Indian staple and the reason it keeps you full longer than the calorie count suggests. There is very little fibre here — 0.0 g per 100 g.
A realistic day matters more than any single dish. If you are building a meal, the thali builder adds several foods and their real servings together in one total.
प्रश्न
How many calories are in 1 katori?
About 90 kcal for 1 katori, taken as 150 g (set from full-cream cow milk, unsweetened). Two come to roughly 180 kcal and three to 270 kcal. Per 100 g, curd (dahi) carries 60 kcal.
How much protein is in curd (dahi)?
3.1 g per 100 g, which works out to 4.7 g in 1 katori. That is 21% of the energy in this food, and ranks 3rd of 16 in the raita, chutney & sides group on this site.
Is curd (dahi) good for weight loss?
At 60 kcal per 100 g it is on the lighter side, so portion size is forgiving. The protein share is high enough to be genuinely filling. No single food makes or breaks a diet; the total for the day does.
Why does this differ from other calorie sites?
Two reasons. First, most sites publish a per-100 g figure from a US database and leave you to guess what a roti or a katori weighs; this page states the serving weight up front. Second, home-cooked Indian food varies enormously with oil and ghee — the figures here assume set from full-cream cow milk, unsweetened. A restaurant version can be 30 to 60% higher.
Similar foods
Four more from raita, chutney & sides, and three from elsewhere with a similar energy density.
Where this number comes from
Not in any composition table. Carbohydrate is available carbohydrate — dietary fibre excluded and listed separately.
Curd is absent from IFCT 2017 entirely. These figures come from the older ICMR-NIN Nutritive Value of Indian Foods, which is not the same table the rest of this site is built on.
Every food on this site carries this label. What each one means, and how many foods sit behind each, is set out on the method page.
Nutrient values are averages for the stated preparation, based on the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 (ICMR–NIN) and standard recipe analysis. Energy is reconciled against the macronutrients with Atwater factors on every build. General information only — not medical or nutrition advice. Home-cooked Indian food varies enormously with oil, ghee and portion size; every value here is an average for a stated serving, with the assumption shown.
