Our company is a subsidiary of a Dubai-based company where 99% of the shares are owned by the Dubai entity. However, we are registered as a private limited company. Therefore, I am seeking clarification on which set of laws we should adhere to, as the Factory Act does not seem applicable in our case. Can someone please provide me with guidance on this matter?

Since you are registered as a private limited company, you are a separate entity for all legal purposes. As you are an electrical service providing company, it appears that no 'manufacturing activity' as defined in the Factories Act 1948 is taking place there, so it will not be applicable. However, you are an establishment and have to be registered under the Kerala Shops & Establishment Act 1960, and follow its provisions. Depending on the workforce strength, examine the applicability of statutory provisions such as PF, ESI, Labour Welfare Fund, Professional Tax, etc.
