(i) any capital has been invested for the purpose of carrying on such activity; or

(ii) such activity is carried on with a motive to make any gain or profit,

MazdoorSobfefl case as follows :

"As a working principle it may be stated that an activity systematically or


habitually undertaken for the production or distribution of goods or for the
rendering of material services to the community at large or a part of such
community- with, the help of employees is an undertaking. Such an activity
generally involves the co-operation of the employer and the employees; and its
object is the satisfaction of material human needs. It must be organized an
arranged in a manner in which trade or business is generally organized or
arranged. It must not be casual, nor must it be for one's self nor for pleasure.
Thus the manner in which the activity in question is organized or arranged, the
condition of the co-operation between the employer and the employee necessary
for its success and its object to render material service to the community can be
regarded as some of the features which are distinctive of activities to which
Section 2(j) applies."
