1 Biscuit Calories
The number of calories in 1 biscuit varies enormously by type. A single Monaco biscuit is just 15 kcal, while one Dark Fantasy Choco Fills biscuit is 126 kcal — over 8× the difference. The key factor is biscuit weight: Dark Fantasy biscuits weigh 25g each, while Monaco biscuits are just 3g.
For reference: 1 biscuit = (biscuit weight in grams ÷ 100) × calories per 100g.

How Many Calories Are in One Nutrichoice Biscuit?
One Britannia Nutrichoice Essentials Oats biscuit has 41 kcal. Each biscuit weighs 8.5g. Nutrichoice stands out with 9.6g of dietary fiber per 100g and zero added sugar — making it one of the better options on this list, though still high in saturated fat at 483 kcal per 100g.

| 2 Threptin biscuits | 35 |
| 3 Threptin biscuits | 52.5 |

Threptin benefits: Threptin is the only major biscuit brand where protein makes up more than a quarter of the calories. It is suitable for those with higher protein needs, post-workout snacking, or as a supplement between meals. Prefer the sugar-free variant if managing blood sugar.
How Many Calories Are in One Monaco Biscuit?
One Parle Monaco biscuit has 15 kcal. Each biscuit weighs 3g. Monaco is a light, salted cracker — one of the lowest-calorie biscuits by piece count. However, the calorie density per 100g is high (495 kcal), and Monaco is notably high in sodium.
| Monaco Servings | Calories (kcal) |
|---|---|
| 1 Monaco biscuit | 15 |
| 2 Monaco biscuits | 30 |
| 3 Monaco biscuits | 45 |
| 4 Monaco biscuits | 60 |
How Many Calories Are in One KrackJack Biscuit?

| KrackJack Servings | Calories (kcal) |
|---|---|
| 1 KrackJack biscuit | 15 |
| 2 KrackJack biscuits | 30 |
| 3 KrackJack biscuits | 45 |

| 1 digestive biscuit | 41 |
| 2 digestive biscuits | 82 |
| 3 digestive biscuits | 123 |

Highest Calorie Biscuits in India
If you're watching your intake, these are the biscuits to be most careful with:
| Biscuit | Calories per 100g |
|---|---|
| Good Day Cashew | 512 |
| Dark Fantasy Choco Fills | 503 |
| Monaco | 495 |
| KrackJack | 494 |
| McVities Digestive | 488 |
| Hide and Seek | 479 |
Dark Fantasy is especially calorie-dense in practice because each biscuit is 25g — so eating just 2 biscuits = 252 kcal.
Lowest Calorie Biscuits in India
| Biscuit | Calories per 100g | 1 Biscuit (kcal) |
|---|---|---|
| Threptin | 438 | 17.5 |
| Marie Gold | 448 | 22 |
| Nutrichoice Essentials Oats | 483 | 41 |
| McVities Digestive | 488 | 41 |
Threptin has the lowest calorie density and the highest protein content, making it the best option for health-conscious snacking.
Are Biscuits Good for Weight Loss?
No biscuit is truly ideal for weight loss. Most Indian biscuits are made from refined flour (maida), palm oil, and sugar — all of which contribute to weight gain and blood sugar spikes. Even "healthier" options like Nutrichoice or McVities Digestive are high in calories (480–490 kcal per 100g).
If you do choose to include biscuits in a weight-loss diet:
- Pick Nutrichoice Essentials Oats (no added sugar, 9.6g fiber per 100g)
- Keep servings to 2–3 biscuits maximum
- Track them honestly in the Hint app to stay within your daily calorie target
The Hint app has all major biscuit brands in its database, so you can log exactly what you ate in under 10 seconds.
Why Are Biscuits Unhealthy?
Most biscuits are packed with saturated fats, refined sugar, maida (all-purpose flour), sodium, and preservatives. These ingredients raise blood sugar, contribute to weight gain, and offer little in return — no significant vitamins, minerals, or antioxidants. The high glycemic index of maida-based biscuits makes them especially problematic for people managing diabetes or PCOS.
Biscuits and specific health conditions:
Are biscuits good for diabetes? No. The refined carbs and sugar cause rapid blood sugar spikes, worsening glycemic control.
Are biscuits good for blood pressure? No. Palm oil, maida, sodium, and preservatives increase heart disease and hypertension risk.
Are biscuits good for PCOS? No. PCOS management requires avoiding simple carbs, refined sugar, and saturated fat — all of which biscuits contain in abundance.
Are biscuits good for thyroid? No. Biscuits are high in calories and sodium while providing negligible nutrients useful for thyroid function.
Are biscuits good for immunity? No. Biscuits contain no vitamins, minerals, or antioxidants that support immune function.
Are biscuits good for muscle gain? Not meaningfully. Most biscuits are too low in protein to support muscle gain. Threptin (27% protein) is the one exception for a light protein snack.
Which Biscuit Is Good for Health?
Among the options available, Nutrichoice Essentials Oats biscuits and Threptin diskettes are the better choices:
Nutrichoice Essentials Oats contains 9.6g of fiber per 100g and no added sugar, making it preferable to Marie Gold or Good Day. Threptin has 30g of protein per 100g — genuinely useful for high-protein snacking.
That said, no biscuit is a health food. They are processed snacks and should be consumed in moderation.

Final Thoughts
The calorie range across Indian biscuits is wider than most people expect — from 15 kcal per Monaco cracker to 126 kcal per Dark Fantasy biscuit. The pattern is consistent: the heavier the biscuit and the more cream filling it has, the higher the calories.
Biscuits are convenient, but they are processed foods high in saturated fat, sugar, and refined carbs, with minimal nutritional payoff. If you're tracking your diet, logging them in the Hint app will show you exactly how much of your daily calorie budget they consume — often more than you'd expect.
