India's food safety regulator, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), has issued notices to Red Bull, PepsiCo and several other beverage companies over alleged violations in the labelling and marketing of energy drinks. The regulator is scrutinising claims, ingredient disclosures and compliance with food safety regulations to ensure consumers are not misled. Companies have been asked to clarify their labelling practices and respond to the notices. The move is part of FSSAI's broader crackdown on misleading food and beverage claims, reinforcing stricter regulatory oversight and consumer protection in India's rapidly expanding energy drink market.
