Kaveri Plastics in Pune had 35 persons employed on its busiest day in the preceding twelve months. Which statement correctly describes its position under Section 4 of the Act?

Kaveri Plastics is a small establishment because 35 lies between ten and forty persons. Its employer furnishes an annual return in Form I in lieu of returns and maintains registers in Forms II and III at the work spot. The older limit of nineteen no longer applies.

  2. BIt is a small establishment and files annual return in Form I and keeps registers in Forms II and IIICorrect
  3. CIt is outside the Act because it has more than nineteen persons
  4. DIt is a small establishment and keeps only Form I as its register

Explanation

A small establishment has not less than ten and not more than forty persons (limit raised from nineteen to forty from 1-1-2015). With 35 persons, it qualifies, so it furnishes annual return in Form I and maintains registers in Forms II and III. The nineteen limit is outdated.
