Normally, the part time consultancy is not barred under any law. But ethically, one should not do consultancy in the same field in which he is performing his duties in the organization in which he is working, or in the line of business of the organization.
Even Government Officers (Even Secretaries), when invited to do some assignment on an invitation, seek permission from the government to attend the same. Without permission, they cannot do any such assignments. I worked with the Government and it is a reality.

The employment letter/contract will determine whether or not the employee can be associated with another organization.
Consulting while in employment may bring a conflict of interest and while legally ok (provided the fees received are subject to TDS and are duly included as earnings), may not be ethically correct.
Most organizations have no objection to employees being associated with educational / professional bodies gratis or for a nominal stipend as this amounts to "reaching-out" on behalf of the organization.
Part-time or contractual employees would be able to consult freely provided their contracts are worded as such.
It is best to be in the clear and inform the concerned authorities in the organization before accepting any consulting assignment (whether paid or not) to ensure that the commitment to the employer is not infringed on (in terms of time, resources and patented information)

What does this have to do with the topic of discussion? If you are studying for your MBA you also need to learn to respect the forums you participate in.

If the consultancy work doesnt hamper the official time and work in the organization, i suppose it should not be a problem. The work should be different and should not be competing with the existing organizational work. Only then an individual can have another source of income in the form of consulting, free lancing etc.

My dear friend Tikam
This was in connection with matters related to the propagation and proper implementation of Govt's own policy; ( and not any contractual work pertaining to and in private sector).
We had invited a senior Secretary level official of a Central Ministry - to help as a faculty in a workshop to help implement one of the govt's policies.
I am certain that the senior official must have taken due permission; as the programme/event was widely reported in newspapers and other media.
Kindly have an open mind about situations and new information. Kindly do not subscribe to the NIH (Not Invented Here) syndrome; i.e. if anything does not happen in one's organization or if one has no idea or information, it DOES NOT MEAN that it does nor happen.
Warm regards.

Dear Friends
Let us distinguish between employment and Guest Faculty.
Delivering a lecture on the subject does not amount to employment and engagement in a Profession. What is paid for the lecture is neither wage nor salary nor fee or any other remuneration. It is known as Honorarium paid as a mark of respect for the preparation and toil he made for his deliberation. Further more every HOD is supposed to educate his customers Users and subscribers in tis democratic setup. The knowledge, wisdom or expertise what one has acquired is a property he acquired by virtue of his being a Public Servant to be distributable to the Public at large and more particularly to the USERS of the Services under the Law.
In addition the officers engaged in any academical or research work are paid Training Allowance also in addition to the Salary. This is to eradicate the general ignorance, myths and confusion about the subject as every one must know his Rights and Duties.
The Part Time employment is continuous engagement for some work or assignment which does require full time deployment throughout the season. The Prt-Time employees thus establish a Master and servant Relation. This relation is not established wit the Secretaries invited for delivering a lecture in the field f thbeir expertise.
Hopefully this clarification will be of little use.

I agree with the clarification given above by Satish Kumar Bhargava.
The "consultant" needs to be defined/explained properly; in the query itself; so that members can give appropriate responses - specific to the matter under discussion.
I request the hhurmade, who started this discussion to cite the instance, with more information such as the nature of the organization, about the employee and the kind of "consultancy" work he is rendering outside.
Merely mentioning 'as a consultant' does not clarify the matter; and sends member on the 'wrong trail'.
Warm regards.
