Sunil Kumar Ruling And Implementation Of Pension Provisions Under Social Security Code

Until this month, there appeared to be limited visibility as regards the implementation of the labour code regime. While the Code on Social Security, 2020 (SS Code) received the assent of the President of India on 28 September 2020, the enforcement of the new legislative framework remained uncertain, barring the provision for identifying the beneficiaries under the SS Code through Aadhaar. However, on 3 May 2023, by way of notifications in the Official Gazette (collectively, Notification), the Ministry of Labour and Employment, Government of India, brought few more provisions of the SS Code into force. In this update, we navigate through the Notification (available here and here) in some detail.
