Principal employer will remain A.
A has entered into contract with B to give supplies and B has subcontracted it with C.
The relationship between C and A is only though B and there is no privity of contract between C and A.
Was there any clause preventing subcontracting.

It would have been safe if no outsourcing was mentioned as a clause in the contract.
Notwithstanding this A has the liability a s principal employer.
All contracts must have certain vital details mentioned, depending on nature of contract.
Have a standard contract for such hiring contracts which cover you legally and is up to date as per legal provisions.
