Every food business registers or is licensed on FoSCoS (FSS Act 2006, s 31). From 1 April 2026: registration up to Rs 1.5 crore turnover a year, a State licence up to Rs 50 crore, a Central licence above that (FSSAI order of 13 March 2026). Registrations and licences no longer expire: the yearly fee is still paid, and can be paid for several years at once (FSSAI, 27 March 2026). The 14-digit FSSAI number is printed on every bill (FSSAI order, enforced from 1 January 2022). Each state's Food Safety Officers inspect, and its Designated Officer grants licences and gives notices.

The Designated Officer can give an improvement notice with at least 14 days to put things right; if it is not done, the licence can be suspended, then cancelled, and in the interest of public health it can be suspended at once (s 32). An appeal goes to the state's Commissioner of Food Safety within 15 days. Penalties include up to Rs 1 lakh for unhygienic or unsanitary processing, up to Rs 2 lakh for not following a Food Safety Officer's direction or any other breach, and up to Rs 10 lakh for running without a licence; unsafe food that hurts nobody can mean up to 3 months in prison and Rs 3 lakh (as amended by the Jan Vishwas Act 2023).

FSSAI's Hygiene Rating is a voluntary certification (unless the authority directs a business to get one): an FSSAI-recognised audit agency checks the kitchen against a checklist, and the result is 1 to 5 smileys, valid 2 years. There is no compulsory public grade.
