Is factories Act 1948 applicable to NGO

Quick Summary
This discussion explores the applicability of the Factories Act 1948 to NGOs, including non-profit organisations. The consensus is that the Act is relevant if the NGO engages in manufacturing activities, as it pertains to labour health and safety. The key factor is whether the organisation's operations fall within the scope of the Act's relevant sections, particularly concerning commerce promotion.

Even if an ngo is a factory, it is applicable because it is related to labor health and safety issues.

If NGO is a non profit organisation then will the factories Act 1948 still be applicable to it?

Meaning is it section 8 company promoting commerce? Txs

IF ANY REASON OF YOUR QUERY FALLS UNDER THE SCOPE OF THESE SECTIONS, AND IF YOU ARE INTO MANUFACTURING ACTIVITY, THEN IT IS RELEVANT.
