The FSSAI banned the sale of Nestle’s Low Fat Dairy Whitener after a sample collected from Bharat Hotels Ltd. in New Delhi was declared "unsafe" and "substandard" by a Food Analyst's laboratory report for failing to comply with the FSS Act, 2006.
The non-compliant Nestle Low Fat Dairy Whitener sample was collected from the premises of M/s Bharat Hotels Ltd. (The Lalit) located in Connaught Place, New Delhi.
