Hi,
Our office is in Pune, and our Head office is in Delhi. The employees' ESI returns are filed in Delhi only. I need information on how the employees employed in Pune and Mumbai, and coming under the ESI Act, will receive ESI benefits in Pune and Mumbai.
Thank you.

We have to discuss in depth of this issue:
i. Getting Medical Care: First, you have to get the information of the employees who are working in Pune & Mumbai, to determine which dispensary they have opted for medical care. This is crucial as the dispensaries will provide medical care to the insured persons based on the Live List generated by the Branch Offices.
ii. Getting Cash Benefits: If you have branch offices/sales offices in Pune & Mumbai, you should immediately apply for a separate sub-code number for each office. The Branch Office can then render services to any factory, such as disbursing cash benefits to the insured persons, if the concerned offices are registered within their jurisdiction. After obtaining the sub-code number, please file the returns with the respective ESI branch offices. This way, your employees will also receive the cash benefits.
I hope I have clarified your doubts. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to call me at 09443434313.
All the best.

Further to the information furnished by Mr. Shyam Prasad, I add the following:
In case a Branch Office is functioning in another station, either in the same State or another State, the following steps need to be taken:
1. Apply for a sub-code number for that branch. This can be done either by the Head Office to the Regional Director of that Region or by the Branch Office to the Regional Director of the State in which such branch is situated. If the Branch Office is applying, please enclose a copy of the Head Office's ESI Coverage intimation letter. The application should contain the name and postal address, telephone & fax numbers of the branch office, email ID, name, designation, and address of the in-charge of the branch, nature of work carried on in the branch, date from which functioning, total number of persons employed, number of coverable employees, place at which the records are maintained, and name, address, and code number of the HO, and date of its coverage.
2. On receipt of the sub-code number and allotment of ESI Branch Office, all the employees in that branch are to be registered with that ESI Branch Office by submitting the Declaration forms in Form-1 along with a return in duplicate in Form-3. If the employees were already registered in the Head Office area or at any other place, there is no need to register them again. Their registration is to be transferred to the ESI Branch Office now allotted. For this purpose, a transfer application for each such employee in ESIC-53 is to be submitted to the ESI Branch Office.
3. Compliance by the branch is to be made separately in all respects, i.e., registration of employees, payment of contributions, submission of returns, maintenance of Form 6 Register, etc. This will facilitate the employees in the branch to avail medical benefits from the dispensary of their choice in that area and cash benefits from the respective ESI Branch Office.
