Pepsico India Holdings Private Limited appealed against a penalty of Rs.1.5 Lakhs imposed for allegedly misbranding their product 'Lahar Aloo Bhujia' by writing 'Maha Value' on the label. The company argued that 'Maha Value' refers to the quantity, not quality of the food and does not give any false information. The court considered the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006, and the Legal Metrology Act, 2009. The appeal challenged the judgment and order of the Food Safety Appellate Tribunal, Dehradun, which confirmed the penalty imposed by the Adjudicating Officer.
