    Summary The Bombay High Court dismissed both writ petitions and upheld the Industrial Court's order directing a labor contractor to pay workers differential wages at statutory minimum wage rates. The court held that while contractors bear primary responsibility for wage payment under the Contract Labour Act, they cannot escape this obligation by claiming the principal employer must first disburse funds; workers' entitlement to minimum wages cannot be denied merely because work is performed through a contractor, and the contractor must arrange its affairs to ensure statutory compliance. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
