Dear Pandiyarajan ji,
Your canteen and food production activities will fall under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006. Under this Act, you need to obtain a license for your canteen as well as for your food production and comply with the provisions outlined in the Act.
Additionally, you must adhere to the requirements of your local government Act, in conjunction with the provisions of the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006. Your local government may have specific requirements, such as a trade license, No Objection Certificates (NOCs) from various authorities like the Fire Officer, Environmental Officer, etc.
If your operations fall under the Factories Act, you must obtain approval for any changes to your machinery layout plan and submit an updated manufacturing flow chart to the Director of Industrial Safety and Health.
If your company is registered with the Registrar of Companies (ROC), you will need to amend the main or ancillary objects of your company if food manufacturing is not currently included.
All of these tasks require the expertise of specialists or experts. Therefore, it is advisable to engage the services of local specialists or experts to ensure compliance.
Best regards,
