We are a hospital with more than 4,000 employees. Our institution is already covered under labour laws, including ESI, PF, and the Payment of Gratuity Act.

Our management is exploring the option of outsourcing some departments, such as the hospital canteen, to an outside agency. That agency may employ fewer than 10 people. The proposal is that since the contractor has less than 10 workers, they will not contribute to ESI, PF, or gratuity for their staff. Payments would be made to them on a contract basis.

We need clarity on the following points:

Since our hospital is already covered under ESI, PF, and gratuity, will the canteen workers (contract workers with fewer than 10 people) also fall under the coverage of these Acts?

Does the size of the contractor’s workforce matter, or does the fact that they are deployed within our covered establishment automatically make them eligible for ESI, PF, and gratuity?

In case the contractor does not comply, will the liability fall on us as the principal employer?

Your expert guidance on this matter will help us advise our management properly.

My client purchased a land in 2008, but they registered it in someone else's name as the issue of SC land was involved. So, they purchased it for Rs. 5 lakh. Now, in 2017, they made an agreement with that person and paid Rs. 10 lakh to him that they will settle down it for Rs. 17 lakh. And Rs. 7 lakh was left. Now, in 2025, if they want to transfer it in their own name or they sale that property, how much will be the long-term capital gain and what will be the impact? Can the cost of agreement that is Rs. 10 lakh or Rs. 7 lakh be included in purchase cost?
