Irrespective of the registration of that area by 'X' or 'Y' company, the workers engaged in that area, would be deemed to be engaged in "manufacturing process" and would be covered under the definition of "worker" under the Factories Act 1948 and would be entitled to all the benefits available for workers.

Factory license is to be taken by the Owner thereof. Here who is owning the conveyor belt, normally it would be company Y and as service provider you are not required to obtain Factory License.
For detailed examination the agreement between Company X and Y is to be seen with reference to the applicable State Rules as per Section 6 of the Factories Act 1948.

Dear friend,

In short Company X is a contractor of operation, maintenance and mechanization of conveyer system within the factory premises and outside stretch belonging to Company Y.

Therefore, it is suffice that you have taken contractor's license under the CLRA Act,1970. Even, if the conveyer stretch lying outside the area registered under the Factories Act, 1948 also falls under the Act, it is the responsibility of Company Y who is the owner of the system.
