The range will be available exclusively on the online grocery platform BigBasket for a week, following which it will be distributed to all modern format and general trade stores across the country.
Each pack is of 60gm and priced at ₹ 15 (vegetarian) and ₹ 18 (non-vegetarian).
“With the launch of the new variants under the ‘My’ range, we intend to widen the brand’s target audience.
