Annual Returns under Karnataka MWR, POW & MBR - Can we file the NIL returns separately in Form III under Minimum Wage Rules, Form VI under Payment of Wages Rules, and Form L under Maternity Benefit Rules? Because the number of employees is zero.

FYI this is establishment not a factory. Here X Co., having 3 branches (a, b & c), a & b branches we have already files the Form U annual returns.
But C branch we can’t file the return because the employees who are working in that premises the same details included in the annual return of b branch, the reason is the employees working most of the time in b premises & the registers records maintained in b branch only.
In this case can we submit the NIL returns for C branch, please clarify.

FYI, C branch has not taken any license, hence the act is not applicable. Shop act is not applicable because it is not a notified area. However, the Minimum Wage Act, Payment of Wage Act, Maternity Benefit Act, and other allied acts are applicable. There are no rules to obtain a license for the above-mentioned acts, except for the Shop Act and the Contract Labour Act.

If it is not coming under the shop establishment act, then no need to file the returns. Can you explain why shop and establishment act is not applicable, then it is easy to tell you. Regards Praveen

When your shop is not registered, I don't think you need to submit the returns as you mentioned. In which area/district is your shop located? I also worked in Bangalore and Belgaum.
