CCPA Expands Enforcement on Misleading Food Claims and Consumer Protection Areas
The Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) has intensified actions against misleading '100%' claims on food products, penalizing companies like Mrs. Bectors for inaccurately labeling items as fully containing certain ingredients. The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) supports this crackdown to ensure truthful labeling. Additionally, the CCPA has broadened its enforcement since 2021, addressing consumer protection issues across sectors including e-commerce, digital platforms, healthcare, and services, reflecting evolving consumer risks in the digital marketplace.
