India: India's FSSAI Issues Guidance Document on Trans Fats - Urges Food Business Operators to Use Trans Fat-Free Logo

On March 3, 2022, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) published a guidance document on the elimination of trans fats. The FSSAI document advises food manufacturers to test their products for trans-fats. If the product contains no more than 0.2 grams of trans fats per 100 grams of food, use of a trans fat-free logo is permissible on the food product's label and in retail outlets.
