Hello,
Can anyone tell me if ESI is deducted when an employee's salary is 14000/- per month? What is the maximum limit of ESI? Does it also vary from company to company, such as in IT compared to other sectors? Additionally, please inform me about the amount of PF deduction.
Thank you.

Dear friend,
The wage ceiling for ESI coverage is Rs. 15,000 per month wef 1-5-2010. Wages include DA, HRA, Conveyance allowance other than Travelling Allowance, and all allowances paid on a monthly basis. You can refer to section 2(22) of the ESI Act 1948.
Wages do not include overtime allowance for coverage purposes, but ESI contributions are payable on overtime.

As posted above by Mr. Abbas and Mr. Madan Mohan, I would further clarify some points on ESIS. One gets covered under the ESIS if the gross salary is less than or equal to Rs. 15,000/-. In case the salary rises above or equal to Rs. 15,001/- due to any salary revision, increment, etc., he would not get exempted until he has reached the cut-out point (contributory period), i.e., April/October. This means he would still be in the ESIS coverage until the month of April or October, whichever is earlier.
