Starting a food delivery service in Hyderabad? I’m planning to do the same, but I’m not actually cooking the food myself. Do I still need a food license to operate?

Yes, you will likely need a food license in Hyderabad even if you are not preparing the food. This is because you are handling and delivering food to consumers, which falls under the ambit of food safety regulations. Contact the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) for specific requirements and procedures.
