Dear Sandhya,
What you call "own standing orders" is called "certified standing orders" under the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act 1946. The employer can draft/customize standing orders in line with the Model Standing Orders and the same has to be submitted to the Certifying Authority (normally Assistant Commissioner of Labour) and send the copies of the same to the union/s. The authority examines the draft SO and also invites comments/queries/objections from the union/s. After removing anomalies, he approves and certifies the standing order.

You mean "industry" or "industrial establishment"?
"Industry" is defined in Section 2(j) of the Industrial Disputes Act 1947, and "Industrial Establishment" is defined in Section 2(e) of the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act 1946.
The definition of Industry under Section 2(j) was redefined in the case "Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board etc. Vs. A. Rajappa and Others [1978 AIR 548]" or 1978 SCR (3) 207. Certification of Standing Orders is covered under the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act 1946.

Mr. Sailesh has rightly said about the procedure. You have to go through each clause of the Model Standing Orders carefully and based on the size of the industry/organization, you have to include your own clauses required for day-to-day administrative purposes, and discuss with the union (if any) before submitting to the appropriate authority for approval.
