Dear Sandeep, It would have been better had you mentioned specifically about your confusion - whether it is about the applicability or interpretation of certain provisions etc.

The Standing Orders Act aims to communicate that organizations mentioned under the said Act need to maintain standing orders, which include the rules and regulations of that organization. This may involve timings, roles of each job, duties and responsibilities of a specific post, and disciplinary actions for disobedience, among other things.
The Industrial Dispute Act primarily deals with disputes such as strikes and lockouts. It explains what constitutes a legal or illegal strike or lockout and outlines the procedures for resolving disputes. It also covers unfair trade practices, employee retrenchment, layoff situations, and when to approach the works committee, an arbitrator, or Adjudication (labour court).
The Trade Union Act addresses how to establish a trade union, its eligibility criteria, and purpose.

Studying Labor Laws: A Guide
The Acts and rules made thereunder are required to be studied. You have to buy these acts that have state rules applicable to your region. If you are from Southern states, all central rules are applicable.
Then you have to begin with the preamble of each act and its applicability. Sections and rules made under them are to be considered together. Following the above will give you peripheral knowledge of the Acts.
Understanding Jurisprudence
Then there is jurisprudence, which involves judgments of high courts and the Supreme Court. You have to know the interpretations made. It is easier said than done. All the best!
