Dear Mr. Hekarthi,
Please let me correct: Section 48 pertains to creche and not Section 42 of the Factories Act. In Maharashtra, as per the Factories Rule 92, the provisions of Section 48 do not apply to factories engaging married women or widows exceeding 15, or the total number of children below the age of 6 years of all the women workers in the factory does not exceed 4, subject to making alternative arrangements for a creche room.
Please check the Tamil Nadu Factories Rules to see if a similar provision exists. If so, and if it is similar to the Maharashtra Factories Rules, you may have to provide for a creche room as prescribed.
