State Labour Code Rules Tracker 2026

A 36-State/UT rule-status control that refuses to convert draft or secondary-reported material into “final law.”

36 States/UTsPrimary-source statusDraft vs final
Do not use this table as a “one India = one rule set” shortcut. State rule-making powers differ by provision. A Central Rule page can be the right answer for a Central-sphere establishment and the wrong implementation answer for a State-sphere establishment.

Status model

FINAL / PRIMARY VERIFIED

Exact State Gazette/official instrument attached and reconciled.

DRAFT / PRE-PUBLISHED

Official State material exists but is still draft/comment-stage.

REPORTED NOT PRIMARY RECONCILED

Potential current development found, but Finin2min will not present it as final until the primary instrument is attached.

NOT PRIMARY VERIFIED

No current final status asserted in this release; users must check the State Gazette/department.

Why the conservative labels matter

Maharashtra’s official portal currently labels the Wages/IR/OSH materials as drafts. Delhi’s official Social Security document is explicitly titled “DRAFT RULES” and its portal lists IR/OSH material as pre-published/comment-stage. By contrast, recent secondary trackers report final-rule developments in Rajasthan and Andhra Pradesh; those entries remain “not primary reconciled” here until the exact State Gazette is attached.
