The Contract Labour Act applies irrespective of whether your factory is in place or not, or if it is a shop/establishment. Where the Contract Labour Act applies, the attendance records and all other records required under the Factory Act, Payment of Wages Act, Minimum Wages Act, PF, ESIC should be maintained for each location. Of course, a license under the Contract Labour Act is applicable. These are not dependent on whether you have a labor contract, service contract, or job work and irrespective of whether you pay per person, piece rate, or time rate.
In addition, since the factory is not set up, you will be covered under the Building and Other Construction Workers Act. Cess is applicable under that act and must be paid.
