Overview

What this service covers

The Shops and Establishments Act is a state-level legislation that regulates working conditions, hours of operation, employment terms, and employee rights in commercial establishments. Registration is mandatory for every shop, restaurant, hotel, theatre, and commercial office in India, including home-based businesses and work-from-home setups. A Shop & Establishment certificate is also required to open a current bank account and for many government licences. Requirements differ by state; our experts handle registrations across all major states.
