Pizza pricing in Ahmedabad
Pizza cuisine runs a 26-32% food cost band when executed well. The most-missed cost line: mozzarella variance is the dominant line.

Worked example: Margherita Pizza (10") comes out to a plate cost of ₹54 and a recommended price of ₹239 at a 30% food cost target. The minimum viable price is ₹205 — below this, you're losing money on every plate after kitchen labour.
