registration of Bombay Labor welfare fund Act-1953

[yujin kim]

Dear sir

Suddenly Bombay labour welfare officer visited out company from pune, and checked all our register and muster roll, bonus paid detail, number of workers and inform to us

we should pay contribution one employee 75 paisa for last 5 years who is registered in muster on 30, jun & 31, Dec respectively.

And one more thing, we should register in Bombay labor welfare fund .and 2% panelty also payable.

I never heard about this rule and contribution 75 paisa and registration of BLWF.

Our CA or any other company didn't suggest this. so we didn't know.

I think is it so unfair.. Without proper notice & information or extenuation period, they come and say pay panelty.

if yes, have you heard about this ? and is it cmpulsory activity?
