Calculate your daily protein targets using ICMR DRI 2020 and ISSN 2017 rates with sarcopenia and vegetarian corrections.
In FY 2026-27, ICMR recommends 0.8g-1.0g of protein per kg for sedentary Indians. For active individuals, this rises to 1.6g-2.0g. Vegetarians should add a 12% buffer to account for the lower digestibility (DIAAS score) of plant-based proteins.
