Workers above 20 numbers must go in for Contract Labor Licence from designate Labor Commissioner office. Short cut is to hire a consultant and he will get it done or else the process is as below.
Principal Employer must first submit Form 2 to LC indicating all the Contract Vendors
He will then issue a Form V to the Contractor along with Work Order..
Contractor will submit a list of documents along with original form V and work order, fee amount, a few declarations like NON employment of child labor, etc to the designated labor commissioner who in turn will issue Labor Licence for a period of one year.
The fee is based on the number of workers employed at the site of the principal employer.

Dear Shyam,



The Contract Labour (Regulation & Abolition) Act,1970 is applicable to the establishments employing twenty or more workmen as contract labour. Such establishment need to apply for registration to the labour department (state or Central as the case may be ) in Form-I. The labour licence is required to be obtained by the contractor engaged by you if he is employing twenty or more workmen as contract labour.There are number of records/registers required to be maintained mainly by the contractor.The contractor shall have to send Half-Yearly return to the officials of labour dept.Similarly the employer have to submit Annual return to the officials of labour dept. You have certain obligations as a Principal Employer under the Act & rules.

I suggest you to purchase a book of Contract Labour (Regulation & Abolition) Act,1970 with rules of the state where you establishment is situated as it is a comprehensive Act, which can not be explained here in much details.

Dear shyam,
whether it is ur firm is manufacturing unit. Uhv to take factory licence not the contract labour licence. The contract labour licence is applicable for who engages the labour on temporary basis, against the work undertaken in any factory or else where against the work awarded by the principle employer.
The role of principle employer and contractor is different in any factory/undertaking.
If u need any further details contact or 9949376767
