FSSAI-licensed manufacturers, including repackers and relabellers, importers, and manufacturer-exporters, must submit an annual return online through FoSCoS by 31 May for the previous financial year.
The requirement is based on the food-business activity—not a ?1.5 crore turnover limit. Late filing may attract a penalty of ?100 per day, subject to the prescribed maximum.
Eligible food businesses can submit their annual return online through the official FoSCoS portal by providing the required business, licence and product details. They may file it independently or obtain professional filing assistance. The return should be submitted within the prescribed deadline.
The due date for filing the FSSAI annual return is 30th June.
