The first case of Outsourcing reported in India was way back in 1967 ?
 GHATGE & PATIL CONCERN’S EMPLOYEES’ UNION Vs. GHATGE & PATIL (TRANSPORTS) PRIVATE LTD. 22/08/1967 –Supreme Court
 GHATGE & PATIL (TRANSPORTS) carried on the business of transport and removal of goods by road. It owned a fleet of trucks and employed drivers and cleaners to run them. In 1963 the company, finding difficulty in observing the provisions of the Motor Transport Workers Act 1961, introduced a scheme whereby the trucks, instead of being run by the company itself were hired out to contractors at a fixed rate per mile.
 Employees of the company who were engaged in running the trucks resigned their jobs and most of them who had for- merely been drivers became contractors under the scheme.

 The workmen's’ Union however raised a dispute asking for the reinstatement of the ex-employees who had been given work on contract basis.
 The Tribunal held that the contract system could not be said to be an unfair labour practice, for the ex-employees were never coerced or forced to resign their jobs, and they got more benefits from the contract system than from their original contract of employment.
 In appeal to the Supreme Court the Union contended that the ex-employees of the company continued to be workmen notwithstanding that they were posed as independent contractors, that the beneficent legislation conceived in the interests of transport workers was being set at naught by the company, and that the setting up of the contract system amounted to unfair labour practice.

IMPORTANT POINTS IN GHATGE & PATIL (TRANSPORTS) CASE
i) Since the drivers had resigned their jobs they could not be said to be employed in the Motor Transport undertaking. The word ‘employed’ in the definition of Motor Transport Act. Worker is not used in the sense of using the services of a person but rather in the sense of keeping a person in one’s service. Persons who are independent and hire a vehicle for their own operation paying a fixed hire per mile from their earnings cannot be said to be persons employed in the Motor Transport Undertaking in the sense of persons kept in service. The operators were therefore not Motor Transport Workers within the definition.
(ii) There was no bar in law to the introduction of the con- tract system. A person must be considered free to so arrange his business that he avoids a regulatory law and its penal consequences which he has without the arrangement, no proper means of obeying. This, of course, he can do only so long as he does not break that or any other law.
(iii) Those who resigned did so voluntarily and they got substantial benefits under the new system.
(iv) The Tribunal was right in its conclusion that there was no exploitation of the ex-employees. There was thus no unfair labour practice. The present case was not analogous to the case of contract labour when employment of labour through a contractor or middleman put the labour at a disadvantage in collective bargaining and thus robbed labour of an important weapon in its armoury.

In our earlier post we have referred to GHATGE & PATIL (TRANSPORTS) CASE .Every HR person will ask Is the GHATGE & PATIL (TRANSPORTS) CASE relevant now then why refer to it ?
Actually in that Judgment LAISEZ FAIRE WAS GIVEN A SEAL OF APPROVAL
The Apex Court observed on the whole, however, it is clear that the Company has not done anything illegal.  
A person must be considered free  to so arrange his business that he avoids a regulatory law and its   penal   consequences  which  he   has, without the arrangement,  no proper means of obeying. This, of  course, he  can     do only so long as he does not break  that  or any other  law.
ULTIMATELY the judgment became irrelevant - by the enactment of Contract Labour ( Abolition & Regulation ) Act 1970
So the Judgment of the Apex Court has been overruled-MEANS IT IS JUST referred to FOR tracing history of outsourcing in India .
So Outsourcing is a very old term but in recent times it has acquired a new meaning in Business.
