Since the stay has been granted by Kerala High Court it is applicable only within Kerala. Of course employers in other states can file similar applications in their respective states and those High Courts may or may not grant the stay.
But I do not know why a government can not amend a law retrospectively. Such retrospective amendments galore esp in tax laws or labour laws.
