Muscle gain does not depend on amount of calories, but on quality of nutrition you are taking. You need to take foods rich in protein. You must consume around 80 gm. Protein daily. First try to meet this requirement with whole food, then remaining you can take from natural supplements. Also you should be consuming around 350 gms of unprocessed and unrefined carbs daily. All the best.
