FAQ's on Shop Act Registration

No. A trade licence comes from the local body; shop registration is under labour law. You may need both.

It depends on the state and whether you have employees. We check.

In some states yes, in others it's valid until there's a change.

Changes in premises, ownership or number of employees, depending on the state.
