Following the Supreme Court’s directions on strengthening implementation of the PoSH Act (including in Aureliano Fernandes v State of Goa and XYZ v Union of India), States are now operationalising enforcement.


Every organisation with 10 or more employees must:

  1. constitute an Internal Committee under the PoSH Act

  2. register the Internal Committee on the SHe-Box portal


This applies to all establishments - companies, partnerships, shops, government offices, hospitals, hotels, malls, manufacturing units, retail establishments, NBFCs, IT companies, schools, NGOs etc. Non-compliance can be penalised.


Full Step-by-Step: How to Register on SHe-Box

STEP 1: Visit the portal

Select Private Head Office Registration.


STEP 2: Register the Nodal Officer

You will see a pop-up informing that for every organisation, a Nodal Officer must be registered first.

We recommend: HR Head or HR Manager → Nodal Officer.

This person will receive the login credentials.


STEP 3: Fill organisation details

The form will ask for:

Organisation details • State, District, Sub-district • Full address • Landline STD code (for Bengaluru: 080) • Mobile number • Email ID • Organisation PAN • GST number (if applicable) • Incorporation certificate upload • Any other registration documents (PDF/DOC/JPEG/PNG)

Nodal Officer details • Full name • Designation • Mobile number • Email ID • State, District, Sub-district • Address


STEP 4: Confirmation email

After submission, the Department of Women & Child Development will send an email to the registered email ID.This email contains your login username + password.


STEP 5: Login → Add IC details

Go to: Workplace and IC Management → IC Registration

You must add details of each IC member including the external member:

• Name • Designation • Contact number • Email address • Office address


STEP 6: Add Workplace details

Under “Add Workplace”, re-enter the office location(s).This links each workplace to the registered IC.

Once these two steps are done, IC registration is considered complete.


Common Questions

Is SHe-Box only for government or PSUs?

No. It is mandatory for private establishments too.


Do we have to register branch offices separately?

You register the Head Office first.Then each workplace location must be added under “Add Workplace”.


Is one IC enough?

For one location → one IC.For multiple offices in different states/districts → multiple ICs may be required.


Can we wait?

No. The direction applies immediately. The PoSH Act already mandates IC constitution. SHe-Box is the additional compliance layer.
