Dear Mr. Bijender,

It is the 'Building and Other Constructions Workers Act' (BOCW), not BOC. Please visit the site 'jkhr.in' for information on labor laws. It is clearly written.

Dear all, I am confused about section 2(d)(i) of the BOC Act. Our company is engaged in the structural erection work of a power plant. The ALC of the respective state is compelling us to get registration under the act as per section 2(d)(i), but our work is not of civil nature. Despite this, we are not registered.

Please advise if the BOC Act is applicable to our company or not?

Regards,
Sacheein

Dear Sacheein, In my opinion, ALC seems to be right in implementing this law. We do not find any Section 2(d)(i) in the BOCW Act, 1996. Building or other construction work is defined in Section 2(d), and according to this definition, your work seems to be covered under work relating to construction, transmission, and distribution of power.

With respect to the BOCW Act, we have been providing security services at one of the construction sites. The company is deducting 1% labor cess from our monthly bills. Could you please clarify if it is correct to deduct 1% labor cess from the security guards' monthly bill?

Dear Venkat, please check whether the 1% being deducted is for TDS under Section 194 or if it is deducted for BOCW Cess.

Dear Venkat,

Clarification on BOCW Act and Labor Cess

BOCW 1% Cess is not only applicable to BOC work as stated in the definition, not otherwise. Security services do not fall under the ambit of the said BOC Work; therefore, it is not applicable to security services.

Please clarify if any SEZ developer or a unit in India has applied for exemption from payment of 1% Labour Welfare Cess and has received such exemption from the Central Government under the BoCW Act 1996.

I have taken BOCW registration for the estimated sanctioned period, but our project is not completed in the stipulated time. We have received a project extension of time from the Principal Employer. So, I want to know whether BOCW registration renewal is required or not. Please clarify.
