Hello sir,
We are opening a small catering business in Bangalore. We'll not prepare food but will just arrange from restaurants and will deliver to parties. Is there any license required for this kind on online business? Is food license required because we'll purchase food with restaurants who already have license. Please let me know in detail about the legal requirements for this sort of Business.
Thanks in Advance...

If food is packed one you need the food currier incense you get from municipal corporation,and register you firm for service tax.Always ask to endrse the time of purchase and delivery on the bill as the cooked food is perishable goods.
