FSSAI Initiates Legal Action Against Nestle India Over Infant Nutrition ProductsPreviousNext

The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has initiated three adjudication cases against Nestle India concerning alleged non-compliance with regulations on infant nutrition products. The cases involve promotional claims on NAN Excella Pro Stage 1 and Lactogen Pro 1, which were found to violate rules restricting advertising of infant foods. Additionally, a follow-up formula was found sub-standard in biotin content after laboratory tests. Nestle India's shares declined by around 2-3% following the announcement.
