Renewal Of Labour License

Dear Kalsi,
I really appreciate your views. However, Mr. PK Singh in his initial post has asked the forum whether any provision exists in reducing the licensed strength from the existing numbers or not. But, whether to go for it or not is not debated.
My intention was to inform the forum that it is allowed under the legislation, but due to the interpretation of various authorities, it is generally denied. It is not only the license fees but other expenses are also involved based on the number of workers in the license, which is well understood by the members.
And through this post, I would like to inform the forum that the amendment includes reduction also but if the number is increased, then we may have to pay the additional fees including security deposit. Since I have done two amendments in two different states, I thought it to be useful for others also, who are in genuine need to go for reduction.
Regards,
P. Vathiraj

Dear All,
Now I understand that the actual reason for reducing the number of strength in labour license is well understood by the members of this forum.
As Mr. P.Vathiraj stated in his post regarding other expenses which are also involved based on the number of workers in the license. License Renewal fee is not an issue it is very nominal & can be made without any problem.
I am fully agreed with the views of Mr. P. Vathiraj that Amendment of labour license is elaborated in CLRA Rules 1971 under Rule 28. Under this only I argue that if we can increase the strength of labour license then why not we can reduce the same under the same rule. Then why the labour authorities are telling that it can’t be reduced.
Thanks & Regards,
P.K.Singh

Dear P.K.Singh,
Your assessment is correct and I fully agreed with your views that if we can increase the strength of labour license then why not we can't reduce the same.I too have agreed with the views expresseed of Sh P. Vathiraj on this aspect.
What I have suggested you was a viable solution in the interest of smooth continuance functioning of your oganistion.

My Dear Anonymous,
Though you have suggested that "you can be issued certification of complation of work from p.e.and attached it with form no vii and submit at licening officer you will be get refunde". It seems that you have not read the intial mail of Sh PK Sigh where he has said that their job is on completion stage and at present they have only 100 workers working with them at their project site.His query was that whether one can reduced the strength of the workers at the time of renew of the licence whereas the intial strength of workers at the time of issue of licence was 1000 workers.What you have suggested, does not go with the Rules as the PE can not isse certification of complation of work in this case.
