Arka Majumdar shares his views with Mint
Our Partner, Arka Majumdar, shared his insights with Mint on the Supreme Court’s re-examination of the decades-old definition of “industry”, a development that could have significant implications for India’s labour law framework.
He highlighted that the legislature may need to revisit its definitional framework, potentially aligning it with the broader ‘establishment’-based approach adopted by the three other labour codes, or introduce a revised statutory definition that addresses the Court’s concerns while preserving adequate worker coverage.
Arka noted, “In sum, while the Court's reconsideration may not disrupt the broader labour reform agenda in its entirety, it has the potential to create a meaningful fault line within the new code structure – one that employers, policymakers and labour practitioners will need to navigate carefully.”
