Jewellery Shop - which law should I take into consideration for making HR policies located in Maharashtra?

Dear friends,
I want to know which law should I take into consideration for making HR policies located in Maharashtra.
All 25 employees are on payroll.
The shop is registered under partnership act.
If anyone has a sample format of HR policies, request to please share.

Please use the Search Topic/File box at the top of the page next to the CiteHR logo.
You may not find anything specifically for a jewellery shop, but there is a ton of information about HR Polices posted here by other members. It is one of the most often posted requests.
Use the information in other posts to adapt and develop a set of policies for your specific business.

Dear Colleague,
You need to inform the nature of your business activity in Maharashtra ie is it manufacturing or commercial establishment?
HR policies are not prescribed under any Labour law but for framing the same, the relevant provisions under the applicable labour laws have to be taken into account.
Pending your clarification, it will be possible to make value addition to your query.
