FSSAI Licence Consultant Noida

Quick answer: In Noida, Basic Registrations and State Licences are issued by the Food Safety & Drug Administration (FSDA), Uttar Pradesh — Designated Officer, Gautam Buddh Nagar; Central Licences by FSSAI's regional office with a local inspection. From 1 April 2026 the tiers are ₹1.5 crore / ₹50 crore and licences no longer expire — we file under those rules and coordinate the inspection.

Who we serve in Noida

We file for food businesses across Sector 18's Atta Market and restaurant strip, the corporate cafeterias and cloud kitchens of Sector 62–63 and the Expressway offices, Film City (Sector 16A) studio canteens, Hosiery Complex and Phase 2 packaged-food units, and Greater Noida's Ecotech and Kasna food-processing belt around Pari Chowk and Knowledge Park. The category and inspection expectations differ sharply between a trading firm, a restaurant and a manufacturing unit — we file to match what the Designated Officer for this district actually checks.

Uttar Pradesh-specific: UP runs a single FSDA for food and drugs, so manufacturers with a drug or cosmetic line meet the same department twice. Shop & Establishment registration applies only at 20+ employees under the UP Amendment Act 2025, and there is no Professional Tax — two things cloud-kitchen founders are often wrongly told they need.

What we do

Illustrative client engagement — details anonymised.
Client: A Sector 63 cloud-kitchen operator supplying four delivery platforms.
Situation: Was running on a Basic Registration taken in 2023 while turnover had crossed ₹2 crore; a platform audit flagged the mismatch.
Approach: Filed the Form B State Licence upgrade with the correct kind-of-business codes for each virtual brand, aligned the FoSCoS address with the kitchen's lease, and set the annual-fee calendar under the 2026 perpetual-validity rules.
Outcome: State Licence issued; platform listing restored with no gap in operations.

Frequently asked questions

Which authority issues FSSAI licences in Noida?

Basic Registrations and State Licences come from the Food Safety & Drug Administration (FSDA), Uttar Pradesh — Designated Officer, Gautam Buddh Nagar. Central Licences are issued by FSSAI's regional office; the inspection is still done locally.

What are the FSSAI turnover limits in 2026?

From 1 April 2026: Basic Registration for turnover up to ₹1.5 crore, State Licence from ₹1.5 crore to ₹50 crore, Central Licence above ₹50 crore (FSSAI Order of 13 March 2026). Many guides still show the old ₹12 lakh / ₹20 crore slabs.

Do FSSAI licences still need renewal?

No. Licences issued under the Licensing and Registration Amendment Regulations, 2026 do not expire; an annual fee keeps them active. Existing licences move to the new regime on renewal.

How long does FSSAI take here?

Basic Registration is usually issued within 7 working days of a complete application; State and Central Licences depend on the Designated Officer's inspection scheduling, typically 30 working days per the portal SLA — we track the file through inspection rather than waiting on it.

What does it cost?

Government fees: Basic ₹100 per year; State ₹2,000 per year for most businesses (₹5,000 for large manufacturers and 4-star-plus hotels); Central ₹7,500 per year. Our professional fee is quoted after a short call, before any work begins.

Can you handle the inspection in Noida if I'm not local?

Yes — we coordinate the Designated Officer's visit, prepare the premises checklist (layout, water test, pest control, medical fitness certificates) and attend where the department permits.
