Dear All,
FYI
2012 AMENDMENT TO THE MAHARASHTRA FACTORY RULES, 1967.
The Govt. of Maharashtra has amended the Maharashtra Factories Rules, 1967. The recent amendment came into effect from 3rd January 2012.
The following amendments have been made with immediate effect:-
1) All payment of fees, filing of returns, application for registration, renewal of licenses, notices etc. under Factories Act have to be filed electronically.
2) Monthly return has been introduced which has to be filed electronically by 10th of next month in Form 27A along with muster roll of all employees (names of employees, gross wages, deductions, net payment etc.)
3) Annual return which was required to be filed by 1st February will now have to be filed by 10th January every year in revised Form 27 which covers in detail compliance of various provisions of the Act.
Kindly note: - Upon enquiry with the DISH, it has been revealed that the necessary systems for initiating the procedures mentioned in the amendment will be in place from the month of March. This latest amendment, though has simplified the process of filling the returns electronically, has also in turn increased the need for stringent due diligence to be carried out per month by companies/factories in Maharashtra.
Please refer to the attachment in the mail for the entire amendment.
