Thank you for your valuable input. Amendments are not implemented by the state or by the employer. We wait until something happens and then take action. Your PowerPoint presentation is highly informative.

In your presentation, it is mentioned as 3 months for any disputes to be referred to the labor court. However, as per my knowledge, it is 45 days. Nonetheless, nice presentation, covering all six amendments in the Act.

Dear Parshant, you are right, it's 45 days, but I have read 3 months in an attachment posted on this site. I am posting that attachment.

I am posting one more copy of the notification issued by the Ministry of Labour, which states that the period is 3 months.

Vikram is right, the time for referral of a dispute to the labor court is three months, not 45 days. Probably, you might have some confusion about the proceedings by the Grievance Redressal Committee, which, of course, is 45 days for the completion of its proceedings as per the amended Section 9C (6) of the Act, or for referring the dispute to the labor court after the disposal of the case by the Grievance Redressal Committee (both work out to about 45 days).

Naturally, the 3 months for referral of a dispute to the labor court cover the period of 45 days for the completion of the proceedings of the Grievance Redressal Committee and one month for the disposal of an appeal thereafter to the employer against the decision of the Grievance Redressal Committee.
