- 1Selecting Basic Registration instead of State/Central LicenseWhy: Operating under the wrong turnover or capacity tier attracts Section 63 penalties (imprisonment and fines up to ₹5 Lakh).Fix: We audit your turnover and production metrics to determine the exact statutory license category.
- 2Missing FSMS hygiene plan or expired water test reportWhy: Manufacturing and catering applications without compliant hygiene protocols face rejection on FoSCoS.Fix: We draft customized Food Safety Management System declarations and guide required test certifications.
- 3Not displaying 14-digit FSSAI number on packaging and premisesWhy: Section 31 requires prominent display; failure leads to non-compliance notices during surprise audits.Fix: We provide pre-formatted statutory display templates upon license grant.
