As per your querry, you are running a shop which needs to be registered under teh Maharastra/bombay shops and establishments act.

The minimum wages category wise as declared for the shop employees under this act are applicable to eh employees engaged by you.

Gratuity act applies to factory/shop/establishment wherever 10 or more employees are engaged. It has not relavance whether these are managed/owned by a partnerhip firm or an individual or company etc.,

You may have to refer to the Rules under Factories Act of your state.
