What are the latest test results?

Trace amounts of lead are present in the environment worldwide due to environmental contamination, and the Indian authorities have set firm limits to ensure that the amount of lead present in finished products is within safe limits.

Tests done by NABL accredited labs

NABL is India’s National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories. The Hon’ble Bombay High Court mandated that three NABL accredited labs test Maggi noodles for lead. These labs found all 90 samples - covering six variants - safe for consumption, with lead levels well within the food safety limits specified by the Indian authorities. View the tests results:
