There is no contract of employment between the principal employer and the contract labor. Therefore, the Standing Orders of the PE's establishment is not applicable to the contract labor engaged therein.
If the no of contract labor falls below 50 if which is the threshold, the contractor need not be required to obtain licence for the deployment of contract labor.

Dear colleague,
The company's certified standing orders won't be applicable to the contractor's workers . But the strength of the contract labour being more than 50, The Industrial Employment Standing Orders Act /Rules are applicable and hence Model Standing Orders contained therein will also apply.

Sorry to differ, Mr.Vinayak.
Irrespective of the no. of contract labor, the Principal Employer has no disciplinary control over the CL.
As such, it is for the contractor to have his own Standing Orders certified or to follow the MSO in case of any necessity.

There is no Employer-Employee relationship between Principal employer and Contract employees. Hence how the I.E. Standing Orders Act shall apply to the Contract Labour?

Dear Mr Umakanthan,
The query was if the contractor is engaging 50 or more workers , whether provisions of IE SO Act are applicable to the contractor's workers ,and to that I replied in the affirmative.
I nowhere mentioned that the disciplinary action for contract labour is to be taken by PE. I am well aware that in the context of applicability of the said Act/Rules to the contractor , the contractor is responsible for taking the action.
I did not touch this point as the query was only relating to the applicability or otherwise of SO and the contractor's responsibility , therefore, obviously follows.
May be my limited answer and presumption about this aspect, has misled you Sir, which I did not mean it.

Dear Mr. Nagarkar,
Sorry I have a different opinion. If the establishment's strength is 50 or more, Standing Orders can be applied (in State like Kerala) - prior to introduction of new code. In some States, employee strength should have become 100 or more.
But, now with recent introduction of new Labour Code, the strength has been increased to 300.
