Just like a Society under the Societies Registration Act.

No Dear Kotresh, Trade Union is not formed according to Society Registration Act. A Trade Union is a combination of seven or more persons formed primarily for the purpose of regulating relations between the workmen and the employers. Though a registered union enjoys some privileges, yet an unregistered union can function in the same way as a registered trade union.Mode of registration is provided in section 4-6 of the trade union act and application has to be in form A provided in the central regulations, made to Registrar Trade Unions. There is a nominal fee of registration.
Yes you can form a union of workmen in a professional firm if there are seven workmen or if there are less than 7 you can become member of any other trade union whose rules permit so.
Infact to under stand the purpose of workers' union, you have to go through the definition of Industrial Dispute. It is in plural form i.e. a dispute between the workmen and the employers or between the workmen and workmen or employers and employers. there is no individual dispute except a dispute on termination of servicess of a workman. A group of workmen in the absence of trade union can sponsor a dispute.
