Packaged Boilers:
The program encompasses Packaged Boilers manufactured, imported, or assembled for commercial sale in India and utilizes solid fuel, biomass, oil and natural gas as fuel across all capacities under the Indian Boiler Regulation (IBR). They may include features like an air preheater, economizer, or waste heat recovery system.

Commercial Beverage Coolers (Visi Cooler)
The program encompasses vertical floor or table mounted, single and multidoor type Commercial Beverage Cooler (commercially known as Visi Cooler), with overall heights ranging from 0.5 m to 2.2 m. Notably, this excludes coolers with pre-installed energy management devices (EMD).

โ—‰ The label period for the Energy Star label will be from March 1, 2024, to December 31, 2026.
โ—‰ The standard and labelling portal for company and model registrations will be accessible starting March 13, 2024.

The Bureau of Energy Efficiency (เคŠเคฐเฅเคœเคพ เคฆเค•เฅเคทเคคเคพ เคฌเฅเคฏเฅ‚เคฐเฅ‹) has initiated a voluntary Star Labelling program for Grid-connected Solar Inverters.

This is a big step forward for India's Standards and Labeling (S&L) program. Through this initiative, there is a projection in achieving energy savings of 21.1 billion kWh and a significant reduction of 15.1 million tonnes in carbon dioxide emissions between FY 2024-25 and FY 2033-34.

Beyond its direct impact on energy conservation, this endeavour serves as a key enabler for the Prime Ministerโ€™s Rooftop Solar Programme. Aligned with the objective of deploying rooftop solar systems in 10 million households nationwide, this initiative promises to further accelerate the adoption of solar energy across diverse segments of the population.

Recent scrutiny by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) and the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) highlights the mislabelling of certain products on e-commerce platforms, particularly those falling under the classification of 'Proprietary Food', such as Dairy Beverage Mix, Cereal Beverage Mix, or Malt Beverage Mix.

๐…๐’๐’๐€๐ˆ'๐ฌ ๐‚๐ฅ๐š๐ซ๐ข๐Ÿ๐ข๐œ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง:
The clarifies that the term '๐„๐ง๐ž๐ซ๐ ๐ฒ ๐ƒ๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐ค' is permitted for products licensed under specific regulations, primarily focusing on carbonated and non-carbonated water-based flavoured .

However, 'Health drink' is not defined or standardized under the FSS Act 2006 or any associated rules/regulations. Therefore, for transparency and consumer clarity, all e-commerce Food Business Operators (FBO) are advised to adhere to these regulations by refraining from categorising such products under 'Health Drinks/Energy Drinks'.

๐๐‚๐๐‚๐‘'๐ฌ ๐‘๐ž๐œ๐จ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐ฌ:
The NCPCR echoes this sentiment, emphasising that the term 'health drink' finds no mention in the Food Safety and Standards Act 2006. They have urged the Department of Consumer Affairs of all states and Union Territories to ensure that no drinks or beverages, including popular products like Bournvita, are sold under the misleading category of 'health drink'.

Additionally, they have requested the Ministry of Commerce and Industry to direct e-commerce companies to rectify the categorisation of these products on their platforms.

๐‚๐จ๐ง๐œ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ข๐จ๐ง:
In conclusion, the collaborative efforts of regulatory bodies like FSSAI and NCPCR aim to safeguard consumer interests by ensuring accurate categorization of food products and preventing misleading information that could impact consumer choices, especially concerning the health of children.
