My paper basically examines the definition of Industry under the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. There are two main parties in an Industry I.e. Employer & Employee. The definition of Industry has continuously baffled the courts from a long duration of time ever since Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 has been enacted. Though this Act provides a definition of 'industry' in Section 2(j), but the definition provided is not very precise and has varied interpretations by various people. Judiciary has played an important role in defining what comes under an “Industry”. There are multiple cases decided by the courts, however in each case the definition of Industry is very different. An empirical approach is followed by a court rather than a strictly analytical approach The Industrial Disputes Bill had an amendment in 1982 which clearly puts an end to the floating state of the definition of 'industry'. Due to this process the concept of 'industry' has been narrowed My paper uses various landmark judgments which have clearly mentioned the definition of Industry under the Industrial Dispute Act of 1947
