How to put FSSAI logo and license number on label?

COLORED LOGO NOT REQUIRED
As per the recent order dated 10 Feb 2017 by FSSAI regarding FSSAI logo and license number, it is mandatory for every food business operator to put FSSAI logo and 14 digit license number on principle display part of label in following manner.

Lic. No.XXXXXXXXXXXXX

                                                         
It is interesting to note that, FSSAI didn't asked to put their logo in particular color combination. It just needs to be in contrast with background color of  the package/label so that it is clearly visible to consumers. Eg. If your package/label is of WHITE color then FSSAI logo and license number can be put in BLACK color.

MULTIPLE LOGOS NOT REQUIRED
Secondly, if you have multiple manufacturing units, then it is not required to put FSSAI logo beside the address of every manufacturing unit.You just need to put the 14 digit license number of that manufacturing unit beside its address in following manner. In this case also you need to put atleast one FSSAI logo and licence number in the manner as mentioned above.

Manufactured by:

Plot no 276,MIDC,XYZ
Lic. No.XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

EFG,

EXEMPTION FOR PACKAGES HAVING SMALL SURFACE AREA
As per notification dated 23 Jun 2014, clause no 2.6.1 of FSS (Packaging and labeling) regulation ,2011 made applicable to display of logo and license number. Hence packages having surface area below 100 centimeter square need not to put logo and license number on their label/package but whole packages/multi piece package need to display them.
