Dear Gajavivek,
It seem to your PF calculation is wrong, company contribution is show as higher side, it is calculated on 6500/- not on actual..
PF calculated on BA + DA
ESIC calculated on gross salary (Including any incentive, OT, performance pay paid along with salary in any prescribed month)

Sir,
1 Contribution under Employees' State Insurance Act, 1948 on total wages of Rs. 12430/- per month works out to Rs. 218/- (employees' share @ 1.75%) and employers' share @ Rs. 4.75% as Rs. 591/- i.e. total it works out to Rs. 809/- . Employees' share of contribution as well as employers' share of contributions both are to be rounded to next higher multiple of one rupee.
2. Employer cannot deduct his share of contribution from total wages of employee i.e. from Rs. 12430/- . But if the employer is making another calculations to assess the total expenses on any employee, then it is his own outlook and in my opinion, there is nothing wrong in calculating total liability in respect of any employee.
3. You have not mentioned as to what is "Annual Performance Compensation". In case, it is paid yearly and is just like annual bonus, then in my opinion, it is not part of wages and contribution under ESI Act, 1948 is not payable on said 'Annual Performance Compensation".

Sir,
I may further clarify that the rounding of the employers' share of contribution under ESI Act is not to be done individually for all employees, but to be done at the time of preparing the monthly challan for payment and on total coverable wages of all covered/coverable. Therefore, the employer share of contribution Rs. 590/- (on your coverable wages) under above Act is correct.

Dear Gajavivek,
1) Since your basic amount is less than Rs.6500/-, PF has to be calculated on actual Basic amount. Please check with your HR.
ESIC & PF is not a part of Gross. It is a part of CTC.
2) ESIC limit is Rs.15000/- so whose gross is less than 15000/- only they are eligible for ESIC.
3) Gross - 12430/-
Emp.ESIC @1.75% - 218/-
Emp.PF @12% - 745/- (Basic*12%)
other deduction if any
Net Payable -Rs.11467/-

Hi Anonymous,
It seems that you have not read the trailing mail of Geetha N where it has been clearly mentioned that "ESIC limit is Rs.15000/- so whose gross is less than 15000/- only they are eligible for ESIC". Now coming to your query, though presently you are getting Rs 10,000/- per month, you are eligible for ESI contribution deduction and you will be continued till your salary reaches above 15,000/- per month.
