We wanted to get a sense of what the industry&#8217;s view was on the subject and whether they were open to the idea of stringent enforcement,&#8221; Agarwal said.<\/p>\n<p>Considering the growing size of the food services market, the move to regulate food safety and hygiene standards at eateries had become a must. According to a report by Technopark and the NRAI, the food services market in India is expected to grow from Rs 247,680 crore in 2013 to Rs 408,040 crore by 2018. The five-year annual growth rate has been projected at 11 percent.<\/p>\n<p>The sub-group is poised to meet in the next three weeks to propose amendments to Schedule 4 of the Food Safety and Standards Regulations, 2011, that govern hygiene standards of foodservice operators and providers.<\/p>\n<p>NRAI Secretary-General Prakul Kumar said,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cYou cannot bundle a dhaba and a fine-dining or casual-dining restaurant together.
