The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) in Delhi has issued show-cause notices to leading manufacturers over claims made in infant food advertisements. The regulator has directed Nestle, Abbott, and Zydus to submit evidence supporting the claims made in their baby formula advertisements.

The investigation was initiated following allegations that these advertisements could mislead consumers. The regulator asked company officials to present scientific evidence for the statements printed on product packaging and promoted in advertisements. The targeted companies are required to submit their proof to the agency soon.

The companies have been asked to explain why legal action should not be taken against them under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006. Further steps will be determined after FSSAI reviews the responses and evidence submitted by these companies.
