Are you principal employer or contractor?
First you should know one thing , here people are giving suggestions, guidlines, their views, and sharing their knowledge. but not attempting any exams, How you ask that much of questions in forum at a time . this is not acceptable by the fair people. Your questions look like testing other people not your doubts.

Employers / Industries have the right to engage fresh I.T.I. pass outs/ Graduates etc. as TRAINEES on payment of stipen, generally less than Minimum Wages. After initial training of 6 months or so is over, these Trainees are screened and successful candidates are given permanent posts and grades.
My query is whether a registered Contractor is eligible to engage such ITI pass outs and keep them as Trainees on payment of a stipen, less than the Minimum wages?
