Nandini is the brand of the Karnataka Co-operative Milk Producers' Federation, one of India's largest dairy cooperatives. The BIS product-recall alert page lists a recall order dated 26 Jul 2023 for whole milk powder under the Nandini brand, made under IS 1165:2022, with the licensee shown as Dempo Dairy Industries Ltd. Whether Dempo packed milk powder for KMF under contract, or whether the brand entry on the BIS page reflects something else, has not been confirmed and is the principal verification item for this record.

BIS recalls arise when a sample of an ISI-marked product fails to meet the relevant Indian Standard. The parameter that failed and the lots covered are stated in the order PDF linked from the BIS page.

No FSSAI notice, FoSCoS recall or licence action against KMF or Nandini is on record for 2024 to 2026. The 2023 BIS alert concerns a single product line and does not affect Nandini's liquid milk or other products.

What this means for you

Check who made the pack

The BIS entry names Dempo Dairy Industries as licensee. Confirm whether this is a KMF contract packer before treating it as a KMF action.

One product line

Whole milk powder only; Nandini liquid milk, curd and ghee were not part of the alert.
