Speaking of registration, every food business in India is liable to be registered under the FSS Act 2006 and hence requires a food license, aka FSSAI approval. The FSSAI, which stands for the Food Safety and Standard Authority of India, refers to an apex regulator under the aegis of GOI. It governs entities serving the food sector regardless of type, turnover, or operational footprint. FSSAI essentially promotes food safety and hygiene and compels FBOs to stay transparent with their operation.
