Our Partner, Vivek Daswaney a shares his insight in Mint, “Why the Supreme Court is re-examining a 48-year-old defination.”

He highlights that for employers, the new definition of ‘industry’ under the IR Code may reduce regulatory obligations in certain sectors, particularly in public or non-profit institutions. However, it could also create legal uncertainty during the transition to the new labour codes, requiring organizations to reassess employment structures, dispute resolution mechanisms, and compliance frameworks.
