The Bureau of Indian Standards published a recall alert for packaged drinking water sold under the CSK Aqua brand, manufactured by GD Aqua under BIS licence for IS 14543:2016. The order is dated 22 Apr 2024. BIS issues such alerts when a sample drawn under its certification scheme, from the factory or the market, fails one or more requirements of the Indian Standard, and it directs the licensee to withdraw the affected lots and inform the public.
The BIS alert page lists the product, brand, licensee, standard and order date. The specific non-conformity, the lot numbers covered and any corrective action are set out in the order PDF linked from that page and have not yet been transcribed into this record; they are the principal verification item.
A BIS recall is separate from FSSAI's recall system. It does not, on its own, indicate an FSSAI licence suspension or prohibition, and it applies only to the lots named in the order.
What this means for you
What a BIS recall is
BIS certifies products against Indian Standards under the ISI mark. When a market or factory sample fails the standard, BIS orders the licensee to recall the affected lots and publishes an alert.
Check the lot
The order PDF lists the batch or lot numbers and the manufacturing dates covered. Only those lots are recalled.
It is not an FSSAI action
BIS recalls run under the BIS Act, 2016, separately from FSSAI's FoSCoS recall system. A BIS alert does not by itself mean an FSSAI licence action.
