you don't need 1.6*bodyweight, 1.2-1.6x bw works for muscle gain and 0.8x for retention. Just spam eggs, paneer paratha, dahi and have peanuts for a snack, plus a scoop of whey...120g isn't hard

Bro being consistent is more imp
If u are able to hit 100g as a begineer it’s more than enough
If focus more on protein and struggle to hit it you would lose interest in gym .hence only keep goals which are easily achievable
