BOCW Act - whether contractor also needs to take BOCW registration, since labour inspectors insisting us

praveen446
Dear professionals, We are a main contractors in construction industry and my principal employer already taken BOCW registration and paying cess in chennai and pune. My question is, whether contractor also needs to take BOCW registration, since labour inspectors insisting us to take the same.
Please guide in this matter.

Dear Praveen446
Main contractor also have to take/apply BOCW Registration separately in their name & 1% of Cess amount {excluding tax} has to pay the respective state government on every invoice.

Once principal employer already taken and paying cess for the same construction site, there is no need to take from the main contractor

Dear Rajiv Pratap
With reference to your post, can you share which section of the BCOW Act says ?

Dear Prghr?
Contractor no need to pay cess , since it is principal employer liability. But i am not sure in BOCW Registration.

Dear Praveen
My conclusions are:-
As per the BOCW Act the number of deployment exceed 10 Nos the BOCW Registration is necessary. As per your today's post says "Contractor no need to pay cess , since it is principal employer liability. But i am not sure in BOCW Registration".
The matter of Cess will comes only after taking the BOCW Registration. This is for your information.

The Post says; PE is Regd. under BOCW & paying Cess for construction works in Chennai & Pune.
As your Posting is of Bengaluru, it is not clear whether you are asking for payment of Cess for Construction works being carried out in Bengaluru ?
