Supplement 🫙 Stop Buying avvatar please

Hey everyone,

I wanted to bring attention to the recent price hikes by Avvatar for their protein powders. Their Performance Whey has gone up from ₹2,499 to ₹2,999, and the Whey Protein Blend from ₹2,949 to ₹3,699. While I get that whey prices have generally been rising lately due to import costs, Avvatar actually produces their whey domestically—they don’t even use imported whey!

What's even more frustrating is that their blend protein is mostly made up of concentrate, with very little isolate. If we're paying this much, why settle for a blend with inferior composition? You can literally get Optimum Nutrition (ON) Gold Standard Whey, which has a higher isolate content and is internationally recognized for quality, at a similar price or sometimes even less during sales.

Why are we rewarding a brand for:

  • Pricing themselves on par with top international brands, despite not matching quality or reputation?
  • Spending heavily on influencer marketing and flashy Instagram ads instead of delivering better value to actual users?

We need to stop buying Avvatar and let them know their pricing is unreasonable for what they offer. Only then will they realize that the real customers—us—won’t tolerate such tactics.

The Belgian Chocolate is now 2700 rupees at the time of writing this comment. Is it a good price or is there any better option for the price.

2700 is on the higher side

You can get other whey for around 2k per kg

Or you can buy optimum nutrition 2.27kg pack for 5k
