Pistachios (Pista) by portion
Everything scales linearly from the 12 g serving. If your portion is bigger, so is the number.

How pistachios (pista) is counted here
- The serving is the portion this food is actually eaten in — 10 pistachios, taken as 12 g — not an anonymous 100 g.
- Composition is read off a named row: Shared ThaliFacts dataset, and the label on that row is printed above rather than hidden.
- Carbohydrate is available carbohydrate. Where a source publishes carbohydrate by difference, the fibre is subtracted here and the subtraction is stated.
- Energy is reconciled against Atwater factors on every build; a value that disagrees with its own macros does not ship.
serving kcal = 539 kcal/100 g × (12 g ÷ 100) = 65 kcal check = 4·P + 4·C + 9·F (±15%, ±20% high-fibre)
Where it sits on a fasting plate
Among the 6 entries in nuts & dry fruit on this site, pistachios (pista) ranks 6 of 6 for energy density at 539 kcal per 100 g.
Protein supplies 17% of its energy. That is respectable for the permitted list, but a whole day built on foods like this will still run short — see ਵਰਤ ਦੌਰਾਨ ਪ੍ਰੋਟੀਨ.
It is fat-dominant, so the portion decides everything — a katori and a handful are very different amounts.

Practices are described as commonly observed; customs differ by family, region, community and sampradaya, and this site is not an authority on any of them. Food values come from the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 (ICMR–NIN), the older ICMR–NIN tables, USDA FoodData Central, named composition studies and the shared ThaliFacts dataset, reconciled against Atwater factors on every build. Which source applies to which food is listed per food, and every source carries the date it was last checked. General information only — not medical or religious guidance.
