In a major boost to Nestle India, FSSAI-approved laboratory of Central Food Technological Research Institute (CFTRI) has found Maggi noodles to be in compliance with the country’s food safety standards.

CFTRI had tested five samples sent by Goa Food and Drug Administration when Maggi was banned in June in the wake of findings in Uttar Pradesh and other States that the noodles brand had lead levels beyond permissible limits.

“CFTRI finding shows that samples are in compliance with the Food Safety and Standards Rules, 2011,” Goa FDA Director Salim A Veljee said.
