Orange (Santra) by portion
Everything scales linearly from the 130 g serving. If your portion is bigger, so is the number.

Carbohydrate is available carbohydrate; fibre is listed separately and is in neither the carbohydrate column nor the energy figure. Energy is reconciled against 4P + 4C + 9F on every build.

Read this with it: Pulp only, no peel and no pith, which is how it is eaten.
How orange (santra) is counted here
- The serving is the portion this food is actually eaten in — 1 medium orange, taken as 130 g — not an anonymous 100 g.
- Composition is read off a named row: Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 (ICMR–NIN) (food code E047, Orange, pulp (Citrus aurantium)), 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 = 37 kcal/100 g × (130 g ÷ 100) = 48 kcal check = 4·P + 4·C + 9·F (±15%, ±20% high-fibre)
Observances it appears in
Where orange (santra) shows up in the food customarily associated with an observance on this site. This is a description of common practice, not a rule.
Where it sits on a fasting plate
Among the 12 entries in fruit on this site, orange (santra) ranks 9 of 12 for energy density at 37 kcal per 100 g.
Protein supplies only 8% of its energy. Most of the vrat food list looks like this, which is exactly why protein during a vrat is the guide people need most.
It is light enough that the portion is forgiving, which is rare on a vrat food list.
கேள்விகள்
Is orange (santra) eaten during a vrat?
It is commonly eaten during a phalahar vrat in most households. Customs differ by family, region and community — this describes what is usual, not what is required. On this site it appears in the food list for Chhath Puja, Ramzan (Ramadan) Roza.
How many calories are in 1 medium orange of orange (santra)?
About 48 kcal for 1 medium orange, taken as 130 g (segments only). That is 0.9 g protein, 10.3 g carbohydrate and 0.1 g fat. Per 100 g it carries 37 kcal.
Is orange (santra) filling, or just energy?
Protein supplies only about 8% of its energy, so treat it as fuel rather than as something that will keep you full. Fibre is low at 1.3 g per 100 g. On a vrat that matters more than usual, because so much of the permitted food list is rapidly digested starch.

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. Fasting is not safe for everyone, particularly during pregnancy or with diabetes or other conditions. Speak to a doctor first.
