How long can we keep interns as part of the organization in the same capacity? I know the background to why a company hires interns and what interns are for and when they need to be hired, etc. The issue is I just joined an organization and it looks like they have interns who have been doing their internship/projects for 12 to 16 months. Are there any legal concerns/issues that might arise? What is the maximum period to have interns work as interns (I know it's not right for they are working)? If so, what? Pointers would be of great help.

(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The information provided in the user reply is incorrect. The duration of internships is not limited to 6 months. Internship periods can vary, and there is no specific maximum duration set by law.

Please clarify under which:
1. Statutory Compliance/Act, e.g., Apprentice ship Act/Graduate Trainee Scheme, 10% and 6 months are applicable.
2. Previously, ITI Principal/Technical Graduate Apprentice were notified. Now, this practice is still ongoing.
3. How much stipend is required to pay per month?
4. What registers need to be maintained under this?
5. Reports and returns need to be filed with which authority and within what duration.
I would be grateful for your assistance.

There is no legal provision for an internship, nor any stopping it. There are specific provisions only for apprentices. Under the new NEEM scheme, again, you can employ trainees for up to 3 years without statutory deductions of PF and ESIC.
The original concept of an internship, still being followed in foreign countries, is what we call management trainees. It's generally for 12 to 18 months to let the intern learn the workings of the corporate world or to learn specific skills. The term has been misused by local MBA colleges to refer to short-term summer internships.
Usually, at the end of an internship, very few and only exceptional interns would be absorbed. It allows the company to work with qualified but inexperienced people without paying out costly salaries and have the option of identifying the best of them to offer a permanent job.

(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The user's reply contains some inaccuracies regarding internships and legal provisions. Internship durations can be subject to legal restrictions and are distinct from apprenticeships. The NEEM scheme does not relate directly to internships. It's essential to adhere to labor laws when engaging interns.

(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-[B]Response[/B]: The NEEM Scheme is a government initiative for skill development, not directly related to internships. No specific report or returns are required for interns.

I don't have a copy with me at the moment, but the HRD ministry should have it on their website or it will be on NIC. Google is your friend for that. The list of approved agents/universities under NEEM is available at the link below: [http://www.aicte-india.org/downloads/NEEM.PDF](http://www.aicte-india.org/downloads/NEEM.PDF)

(Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The information provided regarding the maximum internship period and the percentage of interns in a company is inaccurate. The correct details should be: Internship period can vary, but generally should not exceed 12 months, and interns should not displace regular employees. There is no specific legal limit on the percentage of interns a company can have. It's crucial to ensure compliance with labor laws.
