Dear Friends,
Labour department in Haryna imposed 1% Labour Cess to all the Real Estate Developers on the actual project cost under BOCW Act,1996.
I will be very thankful if any HR friend from Gurgaon/NCR region can guide me on this. Labour department also planning to raid such establishments, which are not paying this labour cess.
Your valuable suggestions are always welcome on this.

Dear Friends
The Building and Other Construction Workers Act is for the welfare of the construction workers as they come in the unorganised sector.
But there are many definitions which can be interpreted in different ways or u can say lacking clearity as for eg. Cost of Construction, Definition of Employer etc.
The defn of cost of construction is no where given.
The defn of employer includes Contractor and the defn of Contractor includes sub-contractor.
So we can play with the words since some Supreme Court Judgement clear the ambiguities...
till then interpret or subterfuge with the law...

There seems to be lot of cofusion among the members in respect of this BOCW Act. i would suggest to go through the judgment of Delhi High Court in Builders Association of India case wherein the Act has been discussed in detail and clarification on issues like who is the employer can be found. The Act is not applicable in the case of building your own house.
I would like to know the AP High Court Judgment. Kindly give the case no or parties in the case.
