Neil Duncan-Jordan, Chris Hinchliff, Brian Leishman, and Rachael Maskell will no longer sit as independents in the Commons following a review of their recent conduct, Labour sources said.
The four MPs had on several occasions rebelled against the Government in the run-up to their suspension.
Their most significant rebellion was that against welfare reforms being spearheaded by ministers, which the rebel MPs feared would harm people claiming disability benefits.
