Dear Swnirav1265,
Since you are working for and in the premises of such an establishment (i.e. PE) which is covered under PF and ESIS, your employees who are working for and in the premises of covered establishment need to be covered under PF and ESIS irrespective of number of total employees you have and whether you are covered under PF and ESIS or not.
You are requested to read the definition of employee under both the enactments. Please note that whatever laws applicable to PE are applicable to you for the employees engaged for work under PE.
One can make value addition to my reply.
