Moreover if yes and if he is not registreed then do are we liable in any ways?

I would like to add that we and labour contactor hav entered into an agreement underby which we have agreed to apply for registeration of the establishment by the authority under the "contract labour (regulation and Abolition) Act 1970

Besides above , we are having staff of strength more than 50 and we are regd under ESI & PF Act.
