Dear All, Request your opinion. We have done an agreement with a company for providing the vehicles to us along with the drivers. So it is an agreement between my company suppose M/s. to M/s. B.
Now recently, we came to know due to a legal case that this company M/s. B have done a subcontract with other party for providing drivers to third party without our knowledge and they are placed at our premises.
1-Is their any scope in law where a contractor can also do the sub contract with the third party (When Principal employer dont have knowledge about it)?
2- Whether such contract are valid in law or they are void?
3-M/s. B is a contractor to M/s. A but when they have done a sub contract they have not obtained any license/ registration certificate under Contract labour act.
4:- What can be legal implication on Company M/s. A (Actually the principal employer)?
Please Advise.
Regards
Ranjeet
