Is there any rule or law that a person cannot work in the capacity of an employee after attaining the age of 60 years and must be compulsorily put into a consultancy contract if the organization wants to continue his services?

Employment Age Limit

There is no provision in any law setting an outer age limit for employment. In case there is a valid Standing Order duly certified by the competent authority applicable to your establishment, then follow the provision. Similarly, a consultant can be of any age; it need not be only those above the superannuation age.
