Dear All,

We have a small R&D setup and are moving into production. We have less than 20 employees and we consume power for production. Is a factory license mandatory for us, or do we need to obtain an SME certification?

Thank you.

Hi Richa Nair, As per my understanding, if you enter in to manufacturing process with more than 10 worker, you will need to take Factory license. — Regards, Hardik

Please go through section 2m of Factories Act, then decide whether the said will be applicable to you or not!!!
