Meaning
Stating that one has sufficient quantity of something.
Cultural Background
In North Indian hospitality, it is common for hosts to insist. You may need to say this phrase twice to be taken seriously. In South India, a simple hand gesture (palm down) combined with this phrase is very effective. In corporate settings, adding 'thank you' is mandatory to maintain professional decorum.
Use 'Bas'
Adding 'Bas' before the phrase makes it sound much more natural and polite.
Hospitality
Don't feel bad about saying this; hosts appreciate knowing when you are satisfied.
