Food labelling laws in india

I still can't sort out the label on food I bought in India.

Offline - We shall be online soon

How interesting. I shopped in their Mumbai store before leaving India, and now find only a placeholder for a website. This is another reference to the shop.

India food tax

I had dinner tonight in New Delhi at the Leela Palace. It is a lovely hotel. The food in its "coffee shop" was very good, a little slow in coming, but quite nice - 4/5 rolled mashed peas and spices with a mint sauce a starter for about 15 USD, followed by a chicken tikka with a lentils on the side and a small fresh salad, with garlic naan bread for about 25  USD + bottle of water for about $2.50. Included in the final price was a total tax of nearly 20% - each element of the meal taxed, it appears, at a different rate? That is too much for two courses in a coffee shop.
