Complete factory compliance, from licence to inspection.
One expert team for factory registrations, renewals, statutory filings, contractor compliance and inspection support, so your plant stays licensed, documented and inspection-ready.
Where it goes wrong, and how we fix it.
A factory has more compliance to manage than almost any other workplace.
Between licences, safety rules, working-hour limits, welfare facilities, contract labour and statutory records, one missed item can mean penalties, a stop in production or a difficult inspection. Most plants face the same pressure points.
- Licence lapses
Factory licences, plan approvals and registrations expire, or need amendments when operations change.
- Record gaps
Registers for workers, overtime, leave, accidents and inspections are often incomplete or scattered.
- Contractor risk
If contract labour entry, exit, payments or PF and ESI challans go wrong, it falls on the principal employer.
- Inspection pressure
Visits from the Factories and Labour departments can arrive at short notice.
- A shifting legal landscape
The four Labour Codes took effect on 21 November 2025, but their rules are still being notified, so teams are unsure which requirements apply.
One partner for your plant's entire compliance function.
We manage everything from obtaining and renewing your factory licence to maintaining registers, filing returns, supporting inspections and keeping contractors compliant. We track every due date, translate legal changes into what you actually need to do, and give management a clear view of where the factory stands.
- Licences in place, renewals tracked
New licences, amendments, plan approvals and renewals handled and added to your compliance calendar.
- Registers that match the shop floor
Statutory registers, returns, notices and payments kept current across shifts and departments.
- Contractors under control
Entry and exit, wage payments, registers and PF and ESI challans checked for every contractor.
- Inspections without the scramble
Records organised and retrievable, with support during the visit and replies to any notice.
- A clear view for management
Regular compliance reports so leadership knows the plant's true position at any time.

Compliant
CompliantEvery step closed. Inspection-ready, every month.Is this for you?
Whether your sector is heavily regulated or not, a factory licence, safety records and statutory registers are the baseline. We keep all of it current.
Hazardous processes and large workforces bring more licences, records and inspections. We map exactly what applies to your process.
Warehouses run by manufacturers and e-commerce firms can fall under factory law depending on the work and headcount. We confirm applicability and manage it.
As principal employer you carry contractor defaults. We monitor contractor registers, wages and challans every month.
Each plant answers to its own state rules. We run one consistent process with a status for every site.
New plants and added capacity need plan approvals, licences and amendments. We handle them before production starts.
We regularise lapsed licences and records, reply to notices and get the plant back to a clean position.

It means meeting every legal requirement that applies to a factory, including licences, health and safety, working hours, welfare facilities, wages, social security, records and returns.
Manufacturing plants, warehouses and other industrial facilities, especially in regulated sectors such as pharma, chemicals and electronics.
The four Labour Codes took effect on 21 November 2025 and subsume earlier laws, including the Factories Act. The new rules are still being notified and the existing rules continue to apply meanwhile, so factories need guidance on what applies today.
Health and safety, welfare measures, working hours and wages, licences and registrations, statutory registers and returns, and social security contributions. The exact list depends on your industry, workforce size, processes and state rules.
Typically worker and attendance registers, leave and overtime records, accident and inspection logs, equipment and fire-safety records, licences and approvals, and annual returns.
We review your documents, prepare and file the application, coordinate with the authorities, track it to approval and add future renewals to your compliance calendar.
Yes. We manage contract labour entry and exit, principal employer registration, wage-payment verification, registers, returns and PF and ESI challans.
