Grant Thornton Bharat, in association with the Indian American Chamber of Commerce (IACC), hosted an exclusive webinar on India’s new Labour Codes, as organisations transition to the new regime.

The new labour codes, implemented by the Ministry of Labour & Employment on 21 November 2025, represent a transformational shift in India’s labour and social security framework. As organisations begin implementing the four labour codes, industry is seeking guidance on interpreting key changes to align policies and processes with the new framework and ensure compliance.

The webinar addressed key aspects such as:

  • Interplay between Centre–State jurisdiction and state-level readiness.
  • Operational impact areas such as minimum wages, overtime, leave policies, and manpower composition.
  • Translating policy intent into practical implementation.
  • Strategic roadmap for a smooth transition and effective risk mitigation.
