Is your 'paneer' really paneer? What FSSAI's latest proposal could change for you

FSSAI has proposed amendments to prohibit the labeling of non-dairy products as "Paneer". This change aims to protect consumers from misleading marketing practices. The proposal affects both packaged goods and food businesses using substitutes. Stakeholders have been invited to provide feedback on these proposed regulations. Increased scrutiny of food safety and labelling practices has prompted this regulatory action to prevent consumer deception.
