The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) is taking action against Nestle India for allegedly using prohibited marketing claims for its infant nutritional products, specifically 'NAN Excella Pro Stage 1' and 'Lactogen Pro 1'. FSSAI states that promotional statements used on e-commerce platforms violate the Food Safety and Standards Act of 2020 and the 1992 Infant Milk Substitutes Act. Additionally, laboratory tests revealed that Nestle's follow-up formula contained lower-than-required levels of biotin.
