Zomato bans analogue dishes on its platform, to delist non-compliant restaurant partners
With immediate effect, dishes that restaurant partners have declared as containing 'analogue dairy' have been delisted from the platform, Zomato said
On August 31, 2026, food delivery giant Zomato unveiled a strict policy banning analogue dishes from its platform, including analogue cheese, paneer, and other dairy products. The company reserves the right to remove non-compliant restaurants from its platform. Zomato cited renewed food safety concerns and inspections by regulatory bodies as reasons for the policy.
Dish listings containing analogue dairy items were immediately delisted, and restaurants with non-compliant items will face delisting. Zomato emphasized the importance of transparency, food safety, and regulatory compliance, urging restaurants to use natural dairy products or remove analogue items from their menus. CEO Aditya Mangla stated that the move aligns with Zomato's mission to ensure better food for more people while safeguarding customer health.
