Unfortunately, I can't speak to the regulations in India... However, in the US - 21CFR184.1240 states that carbon dioxide is generally recognized as safe as a direct food additive based upon good manufacturing conditions of use listed at the link (one of which being that the ingredient is of a purity suitable for intended use).

 

I would imagine that this extends to the realm of juices, assuming all other pertinent regs are followed?

Are carbonated juices legally allowed to be called juices in India? I don't think that's the case in the EU. Other than that, I see no problem. However, wouldn't it be easier to manage consistent dosing using gas rather than solid?
