?CSD suspends sale of Patanjali Ayurved's amla juice

The canteen stores department (CSD), the retailing platform for India's defence forces, has suspended the sale of Patanjali Ayurved's amla juice after receiving an adverse state-laboratory test report on the product that had helped establish the company’s credentials in the consumer business.

The CSD, in a letter dated April 3, 2017, asked all depots to make debit notes for their existing stock so that the product can be returned.

The sources have said, "The batch was tested at the Central Food Lab in Kolkata and was declared unfit for consumption. Patanjali has withdrawn amla juice from all army canteens."
