The Government of India’s (GOI) Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) is working on a regulation that makes it mandatory for food business operators (FBOs) to specify dietary ingredients on the front-of-pack (FOP) of packaged food products. These food products will be benchmarked against the permissible or healthy limits of their consumption. With this FOP approach, FSSAI expects to help consumers make an informed choice on what they are consuming.
