FSSAI withdraws advisory on removal of claims of ‘A1′, A2’ types of milk, milk products

New Delhi, August 26, 2024.

Food safety regulator FSSAI on Monday withdrew its recent advisory wherein food businesses were directed to remove claims of ‘A1’ and ‘A2’ types of milk and milk products from packaging.

The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) said the advisory has been withdrawn to carry out further consultations with stakeholders. It would imply that food business operators (FBOs) can continue to sell and market their products with claims of ‘A1′ and “A2’ types of milk.

A1 and A2 milk differ in their beta-casein protein composition, which varies based on cow breed.
