India's Department of Consumer Affairs proposes amendments to Legal Metrology Rules, requiring mandatory info on all packaged goods sold to consumers.

India's Department of Consumer Affairs proposes amendments to the Legal Metrology Rules, aiming to require mandatory information, such as name, country of origin, and best-before dates, on all packaged goods sold to retail consumers, regardless of quantity. Current rules do not apply to packaged commodities containing over 25 kg or 25 liters, except for certain exceptions. The amendments aim to create consistent standards and requirements for packaged commodities, promote fairness, and empower consumers with complete information at the point of purchase.
