FSSAI License

By Prashant Powle  •  0 comments  •   7 minute read

An FSSAI license is the food business licence issued under India's Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006. Powle Home Foods, which runs AlphonsoMango.in, states FSSAI licence number 10020022011783. This page explains what FSSAI is, what a licence shows, and how to check a seller yourself.

Key takeaways

  • FSSAI is India's food regulator, set up under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006.
  • Powle Home Foods (AlphonsoMango.in) states FSSAI licence number 10020022011783.
  • Powle Home Foods describes this as a central licence for an e-commerce food business.
  • A licence shows that a business is registered with FSSAI. It is not a quality grade, a lab result or approval of a particular batch.
  • You can ask any food seller for its FSSAI number and check it with FSSAI.

What is FSSAI?

FSSAI stands for Food Safety and Standards Authority of India. It is a statutory body under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India, established on 5 September 2008 under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006. It sets food standards and regulates the manufacture, storage, distribution, sale and import of food (Source: Wikipedia, Food Safety and Standards Authority of India; official site fssai.gov.in).

Registration, state licence and central licence

Food businesses in India operate under FSSAI registration or a licence, depending mainly on turnover and the kind of business. Wikipedia summarises the tiers as registration for turnover below ₹12 lakh, a state licence from ₹12 lakh up to ₹20 crore, and a central licence above ₹20 crore, with a separate e-commerce category for online sellers; other factors such as location also count. Rules change, so confirm the current criteria on fssai.gov.in before applying.

The licence held by Powle Home Foods

AlphonsoMango.in is operated by Powle Home Foods, Kurla West, Mumbai. The business states FSSAI licence number 10020022011783 and describes it as a central licence for an e-commerce food business (Source: identifiers as supplied by Powle Home Foods; verify them on the FSSAI register). The same details appear on the FSSAI page of this site.

What an FSSAI licence does and does not show

A licence shows that the business is registered with the food regulator for the activity stated on it. It does not by itself show:

  • the quality, grade or taste of a product,
  • the result of a lab test on a particular batch,
  • that a product meets the rules of another country, or
  • that any claim in an advertisement is accurate.

Treat the licence number as one check among several, alongside reading the label, the seller's policies and the specific records the seller can share.

How to check a food seller's FSSAI number

Ask for the number and verify it yourself. The steps below summarise a sensible check; use the FSSAI website for the current verification method.

  1. Find the licence number on the seller's website, invoice or product label, or ask the seller for it.
  2. Use the verification facility on fssai.gov.in to confirm the number exists and is active.
  3. Compare the business name, address and type of licence with what the seller states.
  4. For a particular product, ask what test reports or documents exist for that product or lot.

Test records and other registrations

Beyond the licence, Powle Home Foods also states APEDA registration 225579 and GI authorised user AU/5974/GI/139/260. For fresh Alphonso, one third-party report is available: Envirocare Labs (NABL accredited), dated 5 April 2025, on an Alphonso sample from an export consignment, found all 28 residues tested within Codex limits. That report applies to that sample only; it is not a guarantee for other batches. Ask on WhatsApp which records exist for a product you are considering.

Is an FSSAI licence mandatory for online food sellers?

Food businesses in India operate under FSSAI registration or licence, and FSSAI lists a category for e-commerce sellers. Confirm the exact requirement for your business on fssai.gov.in or with an FSSAI-authorised professional.

Who issues the FSSAI licence?

FSSAI, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India, issues registrations and licences under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006. It is a statutory body under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.

Does an FSSAI licence mean the food is organic or chemical free?

No. A licence does not state that a product is organic or free of any substance. Organic and residue claims need their own certification or lab evidence.

Ask the seller for the number, then check it through the verification facility on the official FSSAI website. Compare the business name and address with what the seller shows you.

Is the FSSAI licence the same as the GI authorisation?

No. FSSAI concerns food business registration. GI authorisation (GI No. 139 for Alphonso) concerns the right to use a geographical indication. They are separate records.
