Iodine is famous for testing of the presence of starch. I would assume starch is present in the solution, therefore iodine would turn blue. Originally, the colour of iodine solution is brown.
Why does Iodine test gives blue color with starch but red with glycogen?
Iodine forms colour complexes with polysaccharides. The colour of the complex depends of the 3d structure of the polysaccharide. Starch is a coiled structure, which turns blue when bound to IKI (iodine solution), whereas glycogen, which is a branched molecule, turns red/brown.
Which color is given by glycogen on reaction with iodine?
reddish-brown * the color of glycogen solution with drops of NaCl and Iodine solution is Dark Orange. :) *NaCl will intensify the colour as it fulfills the optimum ionic requirement of the reaction

Why isn't starch present when colour is light brown?
The Iodine test uses Iodine solution, which is usually a brown colour. It is used to test for the presence of Starch. Iodine solution, iodine dissolved in an aqueous solution of potassium iodide, reacts with starch producing a blue black color. If the sample being tested doesn't turn blue-black, then starch isn't present.
What color would you see if iodine solution is added to starch?
A deep blue colour
