Dear seniors,
Myself is presently associated with a road construction company who takes projects of Highways. As you know that for road construction some licences are required to be obtained from authorities to executive the project. As per my knowledge we are supposed to obtain labour licence, BOCW reg. cert. and consent from pollution dept. etc.
Since we are in the field of Road construction we are required to establish RMC plant and Stone crusher plant at site location on temporary basis till completion of the project.
In my opinion since we have taken registration under BOCW we are not covered under Factories Act and we are not supposed to take factory licence for RMC and Stone Crusher plant. Also it is to be noted that we are producing the materials for the purpose of road construction and not for commercial purpose. Further, the workmen engaged by us are only for construction activities and not for running any factory, so the Factories Act is not applicable and hence no licence under Factories Act is required to be obtained.
If anybody is having the judgment copy of High Court in which it is mentioned that for construction companies if BOCW act is applicable Factories Act will not come in force.
All seniors in the group are requested to give your valuable advice in the subject matter.
Regards,
Praveen Kr. Singh
