Food Safety & Standards Act, 2006 alongwith Prevention of Food Adulteration Act, 1954, Rules & Regulations

This authoritative volume compiles the Food Safety & Standards Act, 2006 (Act No. 34 of 2006) alongside the Prevention of Food Adulteration Act, 1954, and the full set of principal Rules and Regulations issued under the FSS framework. Ideal for legal professionals and food-industry practitioners, the book presents the consolidated statutory texts, official Rules (including the Food Safety and Standards Rules, 2011), and key FSSAI Regulations—such as labelling, food safety auditing, recognition of laboratories, packaging, and special categories (infant foods, fortified foods, vegan/Ayurveda Aahara)—with clear cross-references and annotations. Practical notes explain licensing/registration requirements, offence & penalty provisions, enforcement mechanisms, and the interplay between central regulations and state enforcement. Each section includes relevant enactment dates, amendment history summaries and compliance checklists to help food business operators, auditors, and regulators apply the law correctly. Carefully indexed for quick lookup, the volume also contrasts legacy PFA provisions with modern FSSA reforms so readers understand transitional issues and contemporary enforcement practice. Whether used for courtroom reference, classroom study, business compliance, or audit preparation, this book is a time-saving legal resource that brings legislative text and regulatory guidance together in one accessible, professionally edited volume.
