Executive Summary & Key Takeaways

What it means

  • This gazette notification from the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) amends a previous notification (S.O. 3648(E), dated December 6, 2016) regarding accredited food testing laboratories.
  • The amendment updates the list of accredited laboratories in different regions of India (Northern, Western, Southern, and Eastern). This involves adding, deleting, and substituting entries for laboratories based on their registration numbers, addresses, and scope of accreditation (biological and/or chemical testing).

Key Changes

  • Several laboratories were deleted from the list across all four regions (Northern, Western, Southern, and Eastern).
  • Several new laboratories were added to the list across all four regions.
  • Some existing laboratories had their entries substituted, meaning their details (address, registration number, scope of accreditation) were updated.
  • Specific changes include the addition of Punjab Biotechnology Incubator, Mohali; Accurate Universal Laboratories Private Limited, Ahmedabad; Global Lab and Consultancy Services LLP, Salem; The South India Textile Research Association, Coimbatore; and National Test House (NER), Guwahati.
  • Specific changes also include the deletion of entries for several laboratories in Haryana, Punjab, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, and Tamil Nadu.

Impact Analysis

Food Businesses

  • Businesses may need to update their internal records and procedures to reflect the changes.

Accredited Laboratories

  • Laboratories with substituted entries will need to update their information and potentially adapt to any changes in their scope of accreditation.

FSSAI

  • The amendment reflects FSSAI's ongoing efforts to regulate and improve the food safety system in India.

Consumers

  • Consumers indirectly benefit from the improved quality control and assurance of food products.

Suggested Action Items

  • Affected laboratories should be provided with clear guidance and support during the transition.
