India
Apr 14, 2025
The Supreme Court has directed the Union government to ensure that food products properly display nutritional information on their packaging, giving it three months to finalise the amendments to the Food Safety and Standards (Labelling and Display) Regulations, 2020.
On Wednesday, a bench of Justices J.B. Pardiwala and R. Mahadevan were hearing a petition on displaying nutritional information on the front of packaged food products, filed by 3S and Our Health, a non-profit organisation.
The Union government told the court that it was already in the process of introducing regulations to that effect.
During the hearing, the FSSAI asked the court to give it time to continue its “structured, consultative, and evidence-based approach” in deliberating FOPNL and related regulations. The court gave it a deadline of 3 months.
