# FSSAI action forces Amway, Emami, 4 others to drop ‘100%’ claims 2026-08-19T14:54:05+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 3 independent outlets The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has forced six food companies to drop '100%' claims from their product labels and advertisements. The regulator said the term could mislead consumers, and initiated enforcement action against the firms. The companies that took corrective steps include Amway India, Emami, Bonn Biscuits, Apis India, Juza Foods and Masterchow Foods. Amway had marketed '100% Pure Coconut Oil', Emami and Apis India used the claim on honey products. All six have now removed the claims from packaging and promotional material. The action is part of a broader FSSAI crackdown on misleading labels. The regulator has also sent notices to other companies including Dabur India and Ferns N Petals, which have since rectified violations. FSSAI continues to monitor compliance across the food sector. ## Indian Opinion Analysis All three outlets report the FSSAI's action as a straightforward enforcement story. The Times of India and the Economic Times lead with the regulator's announcement and list the companies, neither crediting nor questioning the FSSAI's rationale. The Federal's version is syndicated PTI copy, entirely neutral. No source challenges whether the '100%' claims were actually misleading or frames this as government overreach. The uniformity reflects the routine nature of such labelling crackdowns. The key question is whether consumers were genuinely deceived: the FSSAI's reading of its own rules goes largely uncontested in the coverage. Watch for further FSSAI notices and the next deadline for companies to comply. ## Coverage Coverage: 3 sources, 3 neutral - timesofindia.indiatimes.com (neutral report) Leads with FSSAI's announcement, reports company compliance as fact.
