Records & registers setup.
Most inspection findings are about records, not the food. If it isn’t written down, it didn’t happen.
Registers that are complete, in date and kept long enough — because most findings are about paper.
Where the rule comes from
Schedule 4, Part II, 8.2 — retention one year or shelf life, whichever is more
Schedule 2, Annexure 3, condition 8, as amended 23.06.2026
We quote the regulation behind every requirement. Where FSSAI hasn’t specified something, we tell you it’s our reading, not the law.
