Dear Sid,
I once was in the similar situation and hope I seen this post earlier and would have been able to help you:
Do the following:
1) First find out if BESCOM is exempted or not. If no, then a State Body and the State Government are not one and the same thing. They all will have to get themselves Registered and there is no exemption in this regard. The Contract Labour Act do not make any special exemption to Govt. Undertakings, PSUs or Quashi Government Bodies
2) Get them to sign the Form V
3) Now just make the application for License attaching the Form V. Keep a photocopy of the entire set.
4) Do not go and directly try to deposit it as it will be checked. Go, to the Receive Section and get it receipted. Keep the Receipted Copy in a safe place.
5) Just forget about the whole thing and maintain your records in the same manner as you would have done following all laws (Treat that you are already Registered). Submit the returns as well.
It is the duty of the Contract Labour Inspector to get the Establishment Registered as Principal Employer, it is not your duty and cannot be taken to task for non compliance.
Revert back or call me for further queries.

I have a query which is almost similar: But this wld be from the view point of the Agency engaging contract labours for thier overseas / local clients
1) What all registration is required. Apart from Shops & Establishment & Service Tax?
2) Is labour licence mandatory?
3) How to obtain it?
4) Do we need to take labour license even when we employ permanent labours?
