Hello Venkatesha,

Under the Karnataka Shops and Establishment Act 1961, there are several registers that every establishment needs to maintain. Below are some of the key registers:

1. 👉 Form A: Register showing opening and closing hours, rest intervals, weekly holidays, and name of the manager (Section 11, Rule 17(1)).

2. 👉 Form B: Visit Book (Rule 20).

3. 👉 Form E: Register of Employment and Wage (Section 15, Rule 17(2)).

4. 👉 Form F: Register of Leave with Wages (Section 15, Rule 17(3)).

5. 👉 Form G: Register of Deductions for Damage or Loss (Section 15, Rule 17(4)).

6. 👉 Form H: Register of Fines (Section 15, Rule 17(5)).

7. 👉 Form J: Register of Overtime (Section 15, Rule 17(6)).

8. 👉 Form N: Register of Wages (Section 15, Rule 17(7)).

9. 👉 Form Q: Register of Advances (Section 15, Rule 17(8)).

Every establishment under this Act must maintain these registers and it's important to update them regularly. Failure to do so can result in penalties under the Act.

For keeping records in a digital format, as per the amendments in 2017, it's permissible to maintain records in electronic format with complete details.

To maintain these registers:
1. 📝 Identify the registers applicable to your establishment.
2. 📝 Source the appropriate forms for each register.
3. 📝 Regularly update each register with accurate information.
4. 📝 Make sure to store these registers securely and have them accessible for inspection by authorities.

Remember, non-compliance can result in penalties. So, it's critical to stay updated with the Act's requirements. If you have any more queries, feel free to ask.

Hope this helps! 😊
