Tender and the Indian Contract Act

Tender is an invitation to offer under the Indian Contract Act. Therefore, registration as a principal employer under the CLRA Act, 1970 cannot be a qualifying factor for calling for tenders.

To understand the correctness of my above answer for your query, you may refer to sections 1(4), 2(1)(b), 2(1)(c), 2(1)(e), and 2(1)(i) of the CLRA Act, 1970. These sections provide insights into the application of the Act and definitions of the terms contract labour, contractor, establishment, and workman, respectively. Likewise, you may also refer to Sec. 7 of the Act, which deals with the registration of establishments to which the Act applies, and Sec. 9, which addresses the effect of non-registration.

As per my understanding of the act, the Act would apply to any Principal Employer who employs more than 20 workmen. So if the contract would require fewer than 20 workmen, the PE need not be registered under CLRA.
