Delhi High Court pauses food regulator's ban on Dabur's ?100% pure? claims
Published
The Delhi High Court stayed an FSSAI direction that barred Dabur from marketing food products with ?100% pure? claims while the company challenges the restriction. The interim order allows disputed branding to continue pending fuller consideration of consumer-protection and labelling rules.
Why it matters
Purity claims influence purchasing and competition. The final ruling will affect how regulators police absolute advertising language and what evidence manufacturers must hold.
Evidence assessment
Bar & Bench reports the stay and challenged FSSAI order. The court has not decided whether the claims are accurate or whether the ban is ultimately valid.
Medium confidence — The central development is supported by the linked Bar & Bench report, while the stated evidence gaps prevent a high-confidence assessment.
