Yes Mr. Deepak is right. The Applicability is based on the number of employes ( 20 or 20+ on any working day) not based on the salary. Contributing to ESI is based on the Salary limit.

Hi
As per the latest amendment in the esi rules, at least 20 employees must be drawing up to Rs.10000/pm and only then the est. is coverable. Suppose u r having 30 employees but less 20 employees r drawing salary for less than 10000/pm, u r not coverable.
Thanks

Hi All
Wage Ceiling: Every employee drawing wages upto Rs. per month is required to be insured under the Act.
Applicability:-Section 2(9) 'employee' under ESI means any person who is engaged/employed for wages/salary in connection with the work of the establishment to which this Act applies. But does not include any person whose wages (excluding OT) exceed the limit prescribed by the Central Govt. (which is 10000 pm now).
Section 2(12) 'establishment' under ESI means any premises whereon 20 or more persons are employed or were employed for wages.
If you combine both, you understand that if the total employees are 25 but out of which 14 are drawing gross more than 10000 pm, then only 11 employees come under ESIS and the criteria for 20 employees does not fulfill. Hence on above grounds it is not covered

Dear Friend,
Both the sections are independent , & we can not consolidated each other for our expression because in the Act its not mention that both conditions are commulative they are independent,
20 or more employee & 10,000 or less two independent conditions are thre,
first 1 is the coverage of establishment and 2nd one is for contribution.
so if no one is getting 10,000 or less but if the no. of employee are 20 or more, then also they need the registration, however the contribution will be nil.

This est. is not coverable under ESI Act.. u may also confirm the same from esic office. Sanjeev Kwatra

Section 2(9) and 2(12) - Meaning of the words employee and factory - A person getting more wages than the limit prescribed by the Central Government under Section 2(9)(b) would not be an employee within the meaning of Section 2(9). Therefore, where thirteen out of twenty four persons working with a company were getting more wages than the said prescribed limit, the company would not be a factory within the meaning of Section 2(12) and the Act would not be applicable to the company.

Hi sayed
can u give some more insight in this.
an organistion is covered under ESI act but latter on no of employees reduce from the limit as prescribed by the law, whether still it will be covered under esi act.


Hi
Once the Establishment/factory is covered under ESI ACT, then even if the Total number of employes reduce below the prescribed limit, the establishment will continued to be covered under the ACT and the ESI has to be deducted to all the eligible employees

Dear Subhash, For ESI registration there should be minimum 20 employees under ESI coverage salary. For your case you not need to take ESI Code for the same. Regards, Jaimin B.
