Restriction on sub contractor

This query is : Resolved 

23 July 2021 Good Morning Member.
Please give legal advice on below mentioned case.

Company A want to make legal agreement with its Sub contractor for not to doing business with their client directly or indirectly for next 5 years. In the breach of the above said agreement, contractor will be liable to pay a fix amount as penalty.

Here, I want to know can a company make such agreement or this agreement will be void on the ground abstain from doing business.

Please give your valuable legal advice.

Thanks



23 July 2021 Such agreement is legally valid. It's not restricting doing business with other than company A's clients.

25 July 2021 This type of agreement is called non compete agreement and even charging / paying non compete fee is also allowed.
