In a post on social media platform X, the food regulator said the action includes prohibition orders, licence suspension and prohibition of sale against erring businesses.
Among the key actions, FSSAI issued a prohibition order against Vatave Health Care over the manufacture, storage, distribution and sale of its 'FOLINEURO Syrup - Folinic Acid Syrup'.
FSSAI also found that the product was classified as a 'Nutritional Food Supplement', a category that does not exist under the Food Safety and Standards (Health Supplements and Nutraceuticals) Regulations, 2016.
In a separate action, FSSAI prohibited the sale of 'Neuherbs TRUE VITAMIN', marketed by Global Healthfit Retail India Private Limited, over the use of the trade name 'TRUE VITAMIN', which it described as misleading and not recognised under existing regulations.
The regulator said the branding violated provisions of the Food Safety and Standards (Advertising and Claims) Regulations, 2018, and the Food Safety and Standards (Labelling and Display) Regulations, 2020, as it could mislead consumers.
