The demand for tiffin services in Delhi has grown massively in 2025, especially in areas like Noida, Ghaziabad, Gurugram, Dwarka, Rohini, and South Delhi. Whether you operate a home-based tiffin service, run a small cloud kitchen, or deliver meals to offices, you must obtain an FSSAI License to legally operate.
In fact, Zomato, Swiggy, Housing societies, corporate offices, and co-working spaces will not onboard or trust a tiffin service unless a valid FSSAI Registration or License is provided.
This guide explains how to get FSSAI for tiffin services in Delhi, eligibility, documents, fees, processing time, renewal, application steps, compliance requirements, and how PSR Compliance can help you register smoothly.
FSSAI stands for Food Safety and Standards Authority of India : the central body regulating food safety across India.
Any business involved in preparing, handling, storing, packaging, transporting, or distributing food must have an FSSAI Registration/License.
A tiffin service falls under Food Service / Food Preparation / Home Kitchen Business, so an FSSAI License is 100% mandatory.
