Dear seniors,
The Industrial Standing Orders Act is applicable only to industrial establishments. We are registered under the Uttar Pradesh Shop & Commercial Establishment Act; however, we have recently crossed 50 employees in our organization.
Please clarify: What is the definition of an industrial establishment under the Standing Orders Act?
Thanks,

Dear Amit,
I feel that questions of a very rudimentary nature like yours need some homework on the questioner's part before asking. I would suggest that you should go through the interpretation given under section 2(e) of the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946.
Thank you.

The Industrial Employment Standing Orders Act follows the definition of an Industrial Establishment as mentioned in the ID Act. The word "industry" has been defined and interpreted by the Honorable Supreme Court in many cases. You can read them.
