AbstractThis article aims to define the term industry with the help of judicial decisions under the industrial disputes act. Any law keeps growing/ changing with time. For example section 377 of the Indian penal code; where it was considered unnatural offences to be a criminal act but now the Supreme Court has decriminalised the unnatural offences. This gives us a clear idea as to the dynamic nature of law which keeps changing with the growth of civilisation. This article gives a clear idea of how the definition of industry has been modified by the courts.
