Gig Workers Act: Karnataka HC grants interim protection to IAMAI, Swiggy, Zomato, others but orders deposit of welfare fee The Karnataka High Court on Friday refused to stay the operation of the State's gig workers welfare law [Internet & Mobile Association of India v. However, the Court granted Zomato, Swiggy and four other petitioners (aggregators who engage gig workers) interim protection from any coercive action under the said law, subject to them depositing a welfare contribution due under the new law. The Court issued the direction after rejecting the petitioners' request to furnish a bank guarantee instead of depositing this contribution. Justice M Nagaprasanna also rejected the submission that such a deposit would adversely affect the companies' financial statements. "The amount is not being demanded by the State as a charity. It is demanded in terms of a promulgation of a legislation," the judge said. The petitioners before the Court include Internet and Mobile Association of India (IAMAI), Eternal Ltd (Zomato), Zepto, Swiggy, Urban Company and Valmo Transportation. The Court proceeded to order that the amount due for the second quarter of this year be deposited before the court within three weeks.
