PepsiCo Warns India Energy Drink Label Limits Could Deplete Stocks in Two Months

PepsiCo told the Delhi High Court on Oct. 15 that limits on using the “energy drink” label could leave its energy drinks out of stock across India within two months. The court declined to let PepsiCo resume manufacturing under the “energy drink” label. The dispute concerns India’s food-labeling rules, overseen by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI). An Oct. 6 court order allowed PepsiCo to sell inventory already carrying the label, but it did not authorize additional production using that description. The orders distinguish sales of existing units from manufacturing more products under the contested label. PepsiCo warned that continued limits could deplete its stocks of energy drinks across India within two months.
