labour contractor license fees

 

 Labour Contractor License Fees in India (As per the Contract Labour Act, 1970)

The license fees for a labour contractor are prescribed under the Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Central Rules, 1971, and are typically based on the number of contract labourers you plan to employ.

Note: These are central government rates. Individual states may have slightly different or additional charges. Always verify with your state’s Labour Department.


πŸ“Š Fee Structure (Government Prescribed Rates)

Number of Contract LabourersLicense Fee (₹)
Upto 49 workers₹1,000
50 to 99 workers₹2,000
100 to 199 workers₹3,000
200 to 299 workers₹4,000
300 to 399 workers₹5,000
400 to 499 workers₹6,000
500 or more workers₹7,500

🏦 Security Deposit (Refundable)

In addition to the license fee, a security deposit must be paid:

  • ₹90 per worker

  • Paid via a treasury challan or online payment (varies by state)

This deposit is refundable after the contract ends, subject to compliance with labour laws.


πŸ“… Validity of License

  • The labour license is typically valid for one year or the duration of the contract, whichever is shorter.

  • It must be renewed annually, with similar fees and documentation.


🧾 Additional Charges (if applicable)

Some states or portals may charge:

  • Application processing fee (₹100–₹500)

  • Online service fee (₹50–₹200)

  • Late fee if you apply after the contract has started


πŸ“Œ State-Specific Notes

  • Maharashtra, Karnataka, Gujarat, and Tamil Nadu follow the central structure, but portal service charges and formats may differ.

  • Always use the official state labour department portal for your application and fee payment.


✅ Final Tip

Always keep the payment receipt or challan safe—it's required during inspection or license renewal. Also, ensure that the number of workers employed matches what you declare; underreporting can lead to legal penalties.
