1 Cup Flour in Grams

Every Indian flour (atta, maida, besan) has a different weight per cup. Here's the exact chart.

Bread Flour127g7.9g

Why Atta & Maida Weigh Differently

Atta is milled finer and settles slightly differently than maida, so 1 cup of each is a different weight. Sifted flour is even lighter — about 15–20g less per cup. Always use a measuring method consistent with the recipe.

How to Measure Correctly

🥄

Use the spoon-sweep method.Fluff the flour with a spoon, scoop heaping, then level off with a straight edge. Never tap or pack unless a recipe says so — packed cups can add 15–20% more grams.

⚖️

Weight beats volume for scaling.A cup can vary by 10–15% with how it is scooped. Use a kitchen scale for the gram amounts on this page whenever you double or halve a recipe.

🧪

Sift or fluff sift heavy flours like maida; level with a knife for exact grams.
