Mere registration or obtaining a licence under the Factories Act, 1948 does not exempt an establishment from the applicability of the Building and Other Construction Workers Act, 1996 and the Welfare Cess Act, 1996, unless the provisions of the Factories Act actually apply to the construction work being carried out; such provisions apply only when a manufacturing process is actually being carried on, and not during the pre-operational construction phase.
