The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) orders an immediate ban on the sale of Nestlé Low Fat Dairy Whitener after laboratory testing finds a sample to be “unsafe” and “substandard.” The order follows analysis of a product sample collected from a hotel in New Delhi, according to reports.
FSSAI’s actions are reported as an enforcement step based on non-compliance detected in the tested batch. While multiple outlets focus on the regulatory finding and the sale ban, NDTV also reports that Nestlé responds to the allegation by saying the product complies with applicable Food Safety and Standards Regulations, including limits for added phosphorus.
The outlets differ mainly in emphasis: some foreground the regulator’s classification and the immediate suspension of sales, while NDTV includes Nestlé’s position defending compliance with the relevant regulatory limits.
