The Bureau of Indian Standards published a public alert for a recall of packaged drinking water sold under the Nandini Aqua brand, manufactured by Venkis Mineral Water Products, under BIS licence 6391374 for IS 14543:2016. The order is dated 6 Jun 2023. The order PDF is a scanned image and the non-conforming parameter could not be read from it.

This is a packaged water brand of Venkis Mineral Water Products. It is not the Nandini dairy brand of Karnataka Milk Federation.

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 lot 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 factory or market sample fails the standard, BIS directs the licensee to recall the affected lot and publishes a public alert.

Check the lot

Only the lot named in the order is recalled: A10-13. Other lots of the same brand are not covered by this alert.

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.
