  10. ADVOCACY & REGULATORY

  11. Representation to CBDT/CBEC ISF has hired PWC for making the representation before CBDT/CBEC on the following points : 1) The manpower staffing services should come under the section 194 (C) of the Income Tax Act rather than Section 194 (J). 2) Currently TDS certificate is issued with a validity for the current financial year and on client to client basis only, however ISF wanted to pursue for a certificate from AO providing a lower TDS rate for a period of 3 financial years at least and as a whole rather than client to client basis. 3) Service Tax should be applicable on Service Charges, rather than on total billing amount.

  14. ISF Research • ISF published its first ever report “Temporary Staffing in India: Issues and Recommendations” in 2012. • This report highlighted the key regulatory changes that the Indian Staffing industry requires to grow. • It took up short and long term issues relating to: Provident Fund, Employees State Insurance, Employees Compensation Act, 1923, Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, Contract Labour Act and Service Tax etc. The report has been widely circulated to the key policy-makers in India. • ISF published its second report on “Flexi Staffing in Govt. and Public Sector” in August 2014. • This report is an attempt to throw some light around the extent of usage of temporary workforce with the Government and current empanelment procedures and to recommend a higher penetration of organised flexi-staffing. • This shall enable creation of more jobs through the government sector on account of superior matching platform, accuracy, responsiveness and access to best practices that Flexi-Staffing companies possess.
