business ⚖️ Delhi HC halts FSSAI action on Aashirvaad claims
The Delhi High Court issued an interim protection to ITC Limited, stopping the FSSAI from cancelling its food license. This action came after FSSAI questioned the court's jurisdiction regarding the '100%' claims on Aashirvaad MP Chakki Atta. The dispute started with an FSSAI advisory in May 2025, followed by a show-cause notice to ITC on August 10. The court directed that no cancellation decision would be made until the next hearing scheduled for September 9. ITC contends the improvement notice was issued before it could properly respond to the initial notice.
