Hi Satyam,

Its a very resourceful blog. Can you provide me the same details pertaining to West Bengal Shops & Establishment Rules? We have done registration under the act for our office in kolkata but somehow we have not renewed the registration. Are we subject to any penalty pr fine for this?

Today, I went to the beachfront with my
kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She
placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was
a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back!
LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell someone!
