Founding roadmap
From organising to registration
- Convene the founding group. Confirm the proposed name, registered-office state, industries and initial membership base.
- Draft the constitution. Set membership and dues rules, elections, duties of office-bearers, financial controls and how grievances are handled.
- Confirm the filing route. Ask the competent Registrar of Trade Unions to confirm jurisdiction, membership thresholds, forms and supporting records under the applicable rules.
- Plan expansion across states. Set rules for branches and review whether the separate Central Trade Union recognition process under Section 27 is relevant later.
