Hi friends, an actor staying in Chennai employing a personal secretary, personal designer, and having two other assistants would be required to register under any law like the Shops and Establishment Act, Professional Tax. Could you also please suggest the laws applicable to them?

Mr. Raghavan,
There is no provision for registration of any shop or establishment in Tamil Nadu under the TN Shops & Estt Act 1947. Professional tax has to be paid to the Chennai Corporation.

Dear Raghavan.
The basic postulate to bring the employment of persons for hire or reward in any activity of trade/business/commerce, including amusement and service to the public at large, under the Shops and Establishments Act is "the place" or "premises" from where such activities are carried on. An actor is an independent professional, and the services rendered by his personal secretary, costume designer, make-up man, housekeeper, security guards, car driver, etc., are purely personal services. Therefore, his place of residence cannot be considered a business entity to attract the Shops & Estt Act, and as such, no Labour Laws would be applicable to them.
The levy of professional tax is derived from Article 276 of the Constitution of India by Local Bodies such as Panchayats, Municipalities, and Municipal Corporations within their geographical limits. Anyone engaged in any profession, calling, or employment has to pay professional tax levied by the concerned local body according to their earnings.
