Dear member,
1. ESI & EPF are such schemes which cannot be explained in few lines. It will be more better if you may download the material including Acts and rules/regulations framed thereunder from the websites either of above departments or from Ministry of Labour & Employment, Central Govt.
2. You can, however, raise any specific issue on any labour laws after going through the basic instructions, and provisions of said Acts/rules/regulations, if there remains scope of any doubt.

Esi Calculation
Employee's State Insurance scheme is a self-financing social security and health insurance scheme for Indian workers. Any labour who earns below Rs 15000 as his or her monthly salary will be covered under the ESI. Both the employer and employee donate for ESI. Employer's contribution is around 4.75% and employee's contribution is 1.75%.
Example 1:
Find out the ESI for the Gross salary of Rs 9000?
Step 1:
Enter the salary, For e.g. 9000
Step 2:
Employee contributes 1.75% for ESI. Now compute as shown here, ESI = 9000*(1.75/100) = 158
Step 3:
Employer contributes 4.75% for ESI. Compute as shown here, ESI = 9000*(4.75/100) = 428
