FSSAI has issued a notification dated 7 January 2021 related to the implementation of the revised policy for Auto-generation of License/Registration and Auto-rejection of applications in case of non-response
FSSAI has drawn attention to its letter dated 24 May 2019 wherein sub-regulation 2.1.4 and 2.1.6 of the Food Safety and Standards (Licensing and Registration of Food Businesses) Regulations 2011, stipulates that if a license is not issued within 60 days or the applicant has not received any intimation of inadequacy, then the applicant may commence his food business and the concerned Licensing Authority shall not deny the applicant to commence such business. Similarly, in case of petty Food Businesses, as per sub-regulation 2.1.1, if registration is not granted or denied, or inspection not ordered within 7 days or no decision is communicated within 30 days, the petty food business operator may start its business.
