Our approximate estimates for the edible part of typical fruit. A "medium" fruit varies a lot with the variety and the season, and dates are listed per two pieces because they are small and sweet.
Fruits are mostly water, so the calories come from natural sugar and the amount of water. Watermelon and muskmelon are very watery and come in lowest. Mango, chikoo, banana and custard apple hold more sugar in a smaller bite, so the same katori carries more. Dried fruit such as dates packs the sugar into even less weight, which is why two small dates are about 45 kcal.
Easy way to read it: a fruit portion of about 60 to 100 kcal is a small number next to most snacks, which is why fruit is a common swap for a biscuit or a sweet. It is a comparison of numbers, not a promise about any one person.
To compare with other treats see calories in Indian sweets, and for the sugar in a whole day, how much sugar per day.
These are approximate numbers for typical portions, not exact ones, and they are not advice about what you should eat. If you have a health condition or a calorie target from a doctor or dietitian, follow that instead of a general table.
About 95 kcal for one medium banana (about 100 g peeled). A very large one can be around 120 kcal.
About 110 kcal for one cup (165 g) of sliced mango. A whole medium mango has more, depending on its size and variety.
Among common fruits, watermelon (about 45 kcal a katori), muskmelon (about 50 kcal), orange (about 60 kcal) and papaya (about 65 kcal) come in lowest per portion.
About 80 kcal for a medium apple of around 150 g.
