Dear Mahesh,
First Contract labour is not your employee, If he has completed 240 days he will be claim for permanency to the contractor not to you . If your company engage him in periniel types of work which is doing by your permanent worker in that case he will be claim for permanency to your company.
As you told he has work more than 240 days,he will be eligible for retrenchment benefit under ID Act.

dear mr gupta
There are many aspects to this issue. Was the contractor having licence and whether your establishment was rregd with the authorities? What was the nature of work being performed by the contractual employees and who was having control and supervision over them? Who was disbursing their salaries and who has done the full and final payment, so also as you have stated he was issued warnings, who has issued them. See, if all these questions point out to be the contractors employees, purely, there is no need for worry. So far as the contract is not sham and merely camouflage. There are a catena of decisions that contractual employees absorption is ruled out.

The answer will depend on how he was terminated.
If you have terminated him on account of misconduct, with proper enquiry and following the rules, then he will not be entitled to retrenchment benefits. If you have not completed the formalities, then he has an upper hand

For any legal dispute, the first and foremast point comes for discussion is "Employee-Employer" relation. A Contract employee who has been in the rolls of a contractor under supervision and control of the contractor, cannot be treated as an employee of a Principal Employer, just because he is engaged in the premises of PE.
This point is vital in many cases. For any issue, such as enforcement of PF / ESI contribution, implementation of any Acts / Laws, this will be the yardstick.
The way in which you narated the incident, looks like you (your organization) reprimanded him earlier, warned him, suspended him and finally terminated him. Though you had no business to interact with this fellow (supposed to be the scope of the contractor), you exercised your power of "supervision and control" and acted as if you were his employer. Hence this is construed as a "Sham" contract; in this case, the so called "contractorship" is null and void and you will certainly be the employer of this person.
Therefore, better be prepared for any eventualities.

Ok, what you need to see first is whether there are any records of the termination / absconding and of the warnings that were given. I assume you have found him to be working at some other place in the meanwhile. You will need to show records to convince the labour officer that he left on his own or was terminated due to misconduct (drinking while on duty will qualify). If possible you need to show details of warning and domestic enquiry conducted
