HOW IT DEFINES SHOPS, ESTABLISHMENTS & EMPLOYEES
One can file the application directly with the government:
-
Do Online Businesses Need It? :-
Online businesses — the ones that are truly online — aren’t shops or establishments, at least not according to the Acts. This is primarily because they were all passed decades ago, before the Internet.
-
So What Should You Do? :-
So long as you’re an online business, doing work from home, a virtual office or collaborating remotely with your partner, you can claim that you don’t need a Shops & Establishments Registration. After all, the law states that businesses involved in selling goods and services to customers out of commercial offices are liable to register. But you’re selling online online; it would, of course, be different if you were to entertain walk-in clients and sell them products and services. But so long as you don’t, you could technically free yourself from this requirement.
-
Employees Matter:-
The various acts concern themselves not just with shops and other establishments ‘selling’, but mainly with the employees that work there, their work timings, public holidays and working conditions. Therefore, the moment you hire employees, a Shops & Establishments Registration becomes inescapable, even if you’re only selling online.
-
Step 4 :-
The government department will take 4-6 working days to completely review your application and approve the same.
