FSSAI State License Registration

  • Mandatory for food businesses with turnover between ₹12 lakhs and ₹20 crores
  • Issued by the State FSSAI Authority and valid within a single state
  • Ensures legal compliance and consumer safety as per the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006

FSSAI State License is essential for medium-sized food businesses such as restaurants, manufacturers, transporters, warehouses, and wholesalers that operate within one state and have an annual turnover exceeding ₹12 lakhs. It gives your business legal authorization to manufacture, distribute, store, or sell food products under strict hygiene and safety norms set by FSSAI.

This license not only protects you from penalties and legal action but also builds trust among consumers, suppliers, and partners. It is also a basic requirement for getting listed on Zomato, Swiggy, Amazon, BigBasket, and retail chains.

At Startup Bharat, we help you complete documentation, file Form B, handle inspections, and obtain your license quickly — so you can focus on growing your business, safely and legally.
