Summary
- FSSAI initiated legal action against Nestle India.
- Promotional claims on infant nutrition products flagged.
- A follow-up formula sample failed biotin content standards.
The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has initiated legal action against Nestle India. This action stems from alleged violations concerning infant nutrition products. The FSSAI specifically flagged promotional claims made for NAN Excella Pro Stage 1 and Lactogen Pro 1 products.
Further scrutiny revealed that a sample of a Follow-up Formula product was found to be sub-standard. The deficiency was identified in its Biotin content. As a result of these findings, the FSSAI has filed three separate adjudication cases against Nestle India.
