Seeking Advice: How Can IT Companies Get Exempt from Maintaining Wage Registers?

Hi,

Please guide me on obtaining an exemption from maintaining the Muster cum Wage register. My company is an IT company, and we wish to be exempt from maintaining the wage register. Could you please advise on the process?

Thanks.

If you are maintaining a muster roll and wage register in electronic form, you need to make an exemption application to the Deputy Labour Commissioner in Mumbai for maintaining e-records.

Thank you.

I am working in an IT/ITeS firm in Karnataka. It would be helpful if you could please share the format for the application for exemption from maintaining muster rolls and wage register.

Thanks,

Please suggest to me, if we have 10 employees on the regular payroll and 12 employees under a team lease contract, do we need to maintain a muster roll? If yes, can we record this information in one register or do we need to maintain two separate registers for each category?

As a professional service provider in HR Statutory Compliances, we would like to convey one important point at this juncture, since most of the members are seeking the format for applying for exemption to maintain the registers in electronic format, even IT sector members too. Seeking exemption does not arise, since there is a provision in the IT Act, 2000. It clearly says that records can be maintained in electronic format.

Legal Recognition of Electronic Records

Where any law provides that information or any other matter shall be in writing or in the typewritten or printed form, then, notwithstanding anything contained in such law, such requirement shall be deemed to have been satisfied if such information or matter is:

(a) rendered or made available in an electronic form; and

(b) accessible so as to be usable for a subsequent reference.

In case you are looking for any professional support, please write to us.
