Dear Experts,
Can you please help me with what all the labor laws applicable to an MNC (support services) operating in Bengaluru are? I'm finding that payment of wages, minimum wages, gratuity, maternity, and bonus are relevant to us. Am I correct? Also, suggest anything else you feel is applicable.
If any of the above is correct, please let me know how and what registers or filings to be taken care of. Kindly don't give links to go on search; I did all those but unable to come to a clear conclusion due to tough terminology and generalized terms. Help me with short answers.
Thanks in advance!

In addition, the Shop & Establishment Act, PF Act (for those drawing <Rs. 15,000/- per month), ESI Act (for those drawing <Rs. 21,000/-) would apply. There are many other legislations like the Equal Remuneration Act, Inter-state Migrant Workers Act, Labour Welfare Fund Act, and Contract Labour Act if you have outsourced security/housekeeping or other activities. Considering the complexities involved, you may engage a consultant to handle all these compliances.

All the labor laws as mentioned by you and KK sir are applicable. I would be more interested in mentioning that for statutory compliance, involving financial attributes is a must. Such attributes include EPF/ESIC/Professional Tax/Contract Labour Act/Bonus/Gratuity/Maternity/Payment of Wages/Labor Welfare Fund. Apart from these, if it's a factory, then the Factories Act applies, and for shops and establishments, the Shops and Establishment Act applies.
Specific to and in relevance to the employment type and nature of work under consideration, there may be other acts that would require adherence. For example, for an IT company, the IT Act applies, and for security services, the PSAR Act applies, etc. You can write to me at bijay.majum@gmail.com.
