The Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) is planning to take action against quick commerce platforms that do not display expiry dates for grocery and daily essential products.
Complaints received through the National Consumer Helpline are being considered by the CCPA.
Platforms like Swiggy Instamart, Zomato's Blinkit, and Zepto are not showing best before dates, leaving consumers to receive products close to their expiry without options.
Regulatory scrutiny on quick commerce players has been increasing due to concerns about hygiene, product quality, and non-compliance with packaging regulations.
