Hi Kajal, ideally check with your paediatrician whether it is right time to start your child on solid food. Each child has a separate growth and need and your doctor can advise you best.

Yes, I started at 4. 5 months. I started with masoor dal khichri with some veggies and masoor dal-roti (roti soaked in dal), boiled apple. Introduce dishes one at a time. Add butter/ghee, salt and even spices (like cumin). Toddlers usually like the salty taste and lap it up. salt

I don't think we can give salt to babies who is not even an year old. As Nikitha rightly said it is always better to consult paediatrician.
