Certificate of Registration under the state's Shops and Commercial establishments Act is the basic document permitting you to employ workmen. Simply due to the fact that IT is manned by highly qualified and highly paid professionals, you can not escape from complying with the provisions of various Acts like EPF Act, maternity Benefit Act, Workmen's Compensation Act, ESI Act (if situated in the implemented area), Payment of Bonus Act, Payment of Gratuity Act etc. Let us keep all the employees/ professionals who are handling high responsibilities away from these Acts, but let us give some social security to those who do not come under the definition of professionals. Therefore, please get your firm registered under the Shops and Commercial Establishments Act and similar social security enactments applicable to your establishment.

Dear Mr.Mandhadi
In Tamilnadu, the Tamilnadu Shops and Establishments Act is in force. This Act does not require that shops/establishments/commercial establishments should be registered under this Act. Therefore if your establishment is in Tamilnadu you need not take out a registration under the Tamilnadu Shops and Establishments Act. If your establishment is situated in other States, please check the Act relating to Shops and Establishments in that State and see whether registration is required. A better option would be to consult the Labour Department of that State. As on date there is no law relating to Shops and Establishments having all India applicability.

It is surprising to know that under Tamil Nadu Shops and Commercial Establishments Act, registration of establishments (or IT establishments?) is not mandatory. But the rules pertaining to registration of shops and establishments in Kerala, ie, the Kerala Shops and Commercial establishments Act, are very stringent that the enforcement authorities, ie, the State Labour Department, do not spare even an establishment employing one person!
I believe that other states also follow the same ruling of Kerala with regard to registration.

Dear Mr.Madhu
The Tamilnadu Shops and Estalishments Act does not have a provision for registration of shops/establishments/commercial establishments. Any shop or establishment or commercial establishment functioning in Tamilnadu starting from a small shop to big establishments like IT establishments are not bound to register as there is no provision for registration.
