Start your food business with the right compliance foundation.
If you prepare, manufacture, store, distribute, sell, transport, or otherwise operate a food business, FSSAI compliance may be an important part of your business requirements.
The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) regulates food safety in India, and food businesses are generally required to obtain the appropriate registration or licence based on their nature and scale of operations.
FSSAI’s current FoSCoS system provides eligibility information based on the Kind of Business (KoB) and applicable criteria. The framework includes Registration, State Licence, and Central Licence categories depending on the business.
For small food businesses, the applicable requirement may be basic FSSAI Registration, while other businesses may need a State or Central FSSAI Licence.
Legoals helps food businesses in Kandivali understand which route may apply to their situation and assists with the application process.
Starting a food business is already demanding. Adding government registration and compliance requirements can make things more complicated, particularly when you are unsure what type of approval your business needs.

FSSAI uses a three-tier framework consisting of:
The appropriate category depends on the nature and scale of the food business rather than simply the location of the business.
For example, the official FoSCoS eligibility system identifies petty food businesses such as certain small retailers, hawkers, temporary stalls, tea/snack businesses and similar operators, with Registration applicable where the specified eligibility criteria are met.
We review the relevant FSSAI eligibility criteria and identify whether the business may require Registration, State Licence, or Central Licence.
FoSCoS provides a dedicated eligibility system based on the Kind of Business.
The required documents are collected and reviewed based on the business category.
FSSAI maintains separate document guidance for new registration, licensing, renewal, and modification applications.
The relevant business details are organised for the FoSCoS application.
We help ensure the information provided is consistent with the documents and nature of the food business.
Restaurants, cafes, snack outlets, bakeries, and similar food service businesses may require appropriate FSSAI registration or licensing based on their operations.
Home-based and commercial cloud kitchens should assess their FSSAI requirements before commencing or expanding food operations.
Individuals selling homemade snacks, meals, bakery products, pickles, sweets, or other food products may need applicable FSSAI registration or licensing.
Businesses manufacturing, processing, repacking, or producing food products may require a licence appropriate to their activity and scale.
Food retailers, supermarkets, grocery stores, and similar businesses should evaluate their FSSAI requirements according to their business activity.
Businesses supplying food products to retailers, restaurants, institutions, or other businesses may require applicable FSSAI licensing.
Catering businesses, event food providers, canteens, and other food service operators should ensure their FSSAI requirements are appropriately addressed.
