== Controversies ==
Trustified's testing reports have frequently resulted in public disputes and legal action from the manufacturers of the tested products.

=== Emami and Zandu Ashwagandha ===
On 26 March 2025, Trustified published a video testing Emami's "Zandu Ashwagandha Gold Plus." The video reported that the product contained withanolide levels significantly below expected standards and that lead and mercury levels were above the limits prescribed by the Ayurvedic Pharmacopoeia of India. The testing was conducted by Eurofins Analytical Services India, an FSSAI-notified, NABL- and IAS-accredited laboratory.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":4" />

Emami filed a suit for disparagement and slander. On 3 May 2025, a trial court in Alipore granted an ''ex parte'' ad interim injunction restraining Mangal and Trustified from publishing or disseminating any content related to the product.<ref name=":9">{{Cite web |title=Emami vs influencer: HC lifts injunction on product-testing video, says pre-trial gag needs higher bar |url=https://theprint.in/judiciary/emami-vs-influencer-hc-lifts-injunction-on-product-testing-video-says-pre-trial-gag-needs-higher-bar/3050701/ |access-date=2026-11-06 |website=ThePrint}}</ref> Emami argued that the detected lead and mercury were residues of ''Swarna Bhasma'' and ''Yashad Bhasma'', which are ingredients in the formulation.<ref name=":1" />

Mangal appealed the injunction before the [[Calcutta High Court]]. On 22 September 2026, a Division Bench of Justices Sabyasachi Bhattacharyya and Sandip Kumar De set aside the trial court's order, ruling that the injunction was a "gag order stifling such free speech in the larger interest of the public."<ref name=":4" /><ref name=":10">{{Cite web |title=Calcutta High Court lifts gag on influencer’s Zandu Ashwagandha Gold Plus review |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/legal-news/calcutta-high-court-lifts-gag-influencers-zandu-ashwagandha-gold-plus-10890657/ |access-date=2026-11-06 |website=The Indian Express}}</ref> Applying the Bonnard principle, the court found that Emami had not demonstrated that Mangal's defence of truth was certain to fail at trial. The court also noted that the terms "poison in a bottle" and "cancerous" were used in context to alert consumers to health risks, and that the video appeared motivated by public education rather than commercial interest.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":9" /> The court clarified that its observations were tentative and would not influence the ongoing trial.<ref name=":9" />

=== Patanjali Foods and Nutrela ===
In December 2025, Patanjali Foods filed a commercial suit in the [[Bombay High Court]] against Trustified over a video published on 29 December 2024, which alleged that its Nutrela Soya Chunks exceeded FSSAI maximum residue limits for pesticides such as Carbendazim and Benomyl. Patanjali sought the removal of the video and damages of ₹15.5 crore, claiming the allegations were "categorically false" and that the video was published to tarnish the brand's reputation.<ref name=":2" />

In January 2026, a Trustified video testing Amul's Masti Dahi claimed that the pouch version of the product contained high traces of yeast, mould, and other bacteria, well above FSSAI limits. [[Amul]] (the Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation) issued a public clarification dismissing the video as "misinformation" and "fear-mongering." Amul asserted that its product met all FSSAI and internal quality standards and questioned the handling of the sample before testing.<ref name=":3" />

=== IRCTC Vande Bharat Meals ===
In April 2026, a Trustified blind lab test of the [[IRCTC]]'s premium Vande Bharat Thali was widely shared on Instagram. The report alleged that the dal contained Enterobacteriaceae bacteria at 50 times the safe limit, the jeera rice at 70 times, and that the paneer subzi tested positive for ''E. coli'' and ''Bacillus cereus''. The [[Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation]] (IRCTC) categorically rejected the claims as "misleading, factually incorrect, and not reflective of the rigorous food safety." IRCTC stated that its food samples comply fully with FSSAI parameters and suggested that procedural deviations in sample handling may have compromised the test results.<ref name=":11">{{Cite web |title=Vande Bharat Food Controversy: IRCTC 'Categorically Rejects' Viral Lab Test Claims, Calls Them 'Misleading' |url=https://news.abplive.com/health/vande-bharat-food-controversy-irctc-categorically-rejects-viral-lab-test-claims-calls-them-misleading-1837743 |access-date=2026-11-06 |website=ABP Live}}</ref>
