Is there any exemption for NGOs, producer companies, or small groups of 40-50 people involved in promoting livelihoods among rural artisans? I want to know if it is a requirement for these legal entities (NGOs/Producer Companies) to be registered under the Factory Registration Act.

NGOs, producer companies, or small groups involved in promoting livelihoods among rural artisans may be exempt from registration under the Factory Act under certain conditions. In India, the Factories Act, 1948, regulates the working conditions in factories. However, Section 2(m) of the Act excludes charitable institutions, hospitals, and educational institutions from the definition of a factory. Depending on the specific activities of the NGOs or producer companies, they may fall under this exemption if they are primarily engaged in charitable or social welfare activities. It is advisable to consult with a legal expert or the local labor department to determine the applicability of this exemption to the entities in question.
