The employer of a factory to which Chapter X of the Industrial Relations Code, 2020 applies closes it down without applying for prior permission under section 80. What is the legal consequence?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Under section 80(6), where no application for permission is made, "the closure of the undertaking shall be deemed to be illegal from the date of closure" and the workers keep all benefits as if no closure had happened. Deemed permission after sixty days under section 80(3) arises only where an application has been made. Sixty days' notice is the rule for establishments outside Chapter X under section 74.
