Exchange Received Time  29/11/2017 16:19:01 Exchange Disseminated Time 29/11/2017 16:19:09 Time Taken 00:00:08 | Nestle India Limited submitted clarification on the news Item appearing on www.dnaindia.com on 28th November, 2017, as sought by the Stock Exchange through their email dated 29th November, 2017. The Company's response is as below: We strongly reiterate that MAGGI Noodles are 100% safe for consumption. While we have not received the orders passed by the adjudication officer, we have been informed that the samples are of year 2015 and the issue pertains to 'ash content' in Noodles. This appears to be a case of application of incorrect standards, and we will file an appeal urgently once we receive the order. In 2015, NestlĂ© India and other companies had represented to the relevant authorities, via industry associations, to set standards specific to instant noodles to avoid confusion amongst enforcement officers and consumers. The standards have since been introduced and the product complies with these standards. We regret the confusion it may cause to consumers. |
