There is no separate registration required under the Tamil Nadu (Shops and Establishments) Act. However, the Company must fill up the number of its employees and their particulars in Form No. J and submit it to the Assistant Inspector of Labor of the concerned circle where the office is situated. Apart from submitting this information, the Company is required to ensure compliance of the following:

-The Company has to display a weekly holiday notice in its premises.

-Apart from declaring holidays on the three National holidays namely, Republic Day, Independence Day and Gandhi Jayanthi, the Company also has to declare five Festival holidays.

-Particulars of the five Festival holidays are to be submitted in Form No. I and II to the Assistant Inspector of Labor. A court fee stamp of INR 2/- is to be affixed on Form No. I. A copy of Form No. II is to be displayed at the premises of the Company.

-The Company has to maintain various registers such as Attendance Register (Form No. F), Leave Register (Form No. K) and Service Register (Form No. N). The Company has to submit annual returns to the Inspector of Labor.
