Does ESI apply to your business?
- 10 employees or more
- ₹21,000 a month or less in ESI wages: these staff must join
ESI (Employees' State Insurance) gives your staff medical care, and pay when they can't work because of sickness, injury or maternity. It applies if your business has 10 or more employees. This is the same in every state. It does not apply to seasonal factories. Once ESI applies, it stays, even if your staff drop below 10.
Staff with ESI wages up to ₹21,000 a month must be in ESI. ESI wages are the month's pay without some items, like HRA (house rent allowance) and overtime. We check this for you.
What we do for you
You send us salary details. We do the ESI work.
Once
When you start
- We register your business for ESI, if it isn't registered yet.
- We add your current staff to ESI, if the rules cover them. Staff who already have an IP number (each employee's ESI number, which stays the same for life) keep it. We create one for the others.
- Already registered? Once you share the documents we need, we file from your next due date.
Monthly
Every month
- We file your monthly ESI details with ESIC (the ESI office) on time.
- We add staff who join, and mark the date when staff leave.
- We email you the challan (the ESI payment slip). Pay it by the 15th of the next month, or send us the amount and we pay it.
Anytime
When you need help
- We help your staff with ESI claims, like sickness or maternity benefit.
- We keep their ESI details right: Aadhaar, bank account, name and date of birth.
- We keep your ESI records ready for checks, and help you during an ESI inspection.
- We write to the ESI office for you, and tell you when ESI rules change.
We never miss a PF or ESI due date.

Common questions
By the 15th of the next month. For example, ESI on March salaries must be paid by 15 April. Send us the salary details early. We get the payment slip (challan) ready in time, so you can pay by the 15th. Or send us the amount and we pay it.
Yes. Count all your staff, including casual workers and workers a contractor sends to work for you. Staff on high salaries count too. Apprentices are not counted. The owner and partners are not counted either. If your business is a company, call us to check how to count directors.
Once ESI applies to your business, staff whose ESI wages are ₹21,000 a month or less must be in ESI. For a person with a disability, the limit is ₹25,000. ESI wages are the month's pay without some items, like HRA (house rent allowance) and overtime. But ESI wages must be at least half the total pay. If they come to less, the difference is added to ESI wages. We work this out for you.
ESI works in two six-month periods: April to September, and October to March. If an employee's ESI wages go above ₹21,000 during a period, they stay in ESI until it ends. You keep paying ESI for them until then.
Yes, for some risky kinds of work. Then ESI can apply even with 1 employee. Call us to check.
