Patanjali Foods Ltd on Tuesday informed that food safety officials have collected samples of certain batches of Patanjali Cow Ghee for laboratory testing , but the company has not received any authenticated report establishing a failure to meet prescribed quality standards.
The communication regarding the identified stock of Patanjali Cow Ghee was issued to and received by the concerned super distributor or food business operator (FBO), and was not addressed directly to the company, it said in a regulatory filing.
The statement came a day after the Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration ( FDA ) suspended licences of 19 food business operators, including a super distributor of Patanjali Ayurved, and seized food articles worth over Rs 9 crore during a special festive-season drive.
Baba Ramdev-owned Patanjali Foods clarified that neither it nor the concerned FBO had received any authenticated laboratory test report establishing that the samples had failed the prescribed quality parameters as of the date of the disclosure. It also said that the collection of samples for testing, by itself, does not establish adulteration, substandard quality or any violation of applicable food safety standards .
