Hello,
If the gross salary changes in any month, does it affect the ESIC contribution? Also, I want to know how to structure the gross salary to avoid ESIC contribution for employees with gross salary <= Rs. 21,000, while maintaining the same net take-home salary. What adjustments can be made in terms of deductions and the gross amount?
Thank you.

Employee contribution is @ 1.75% of gross salary, hence it may change every month. This is very basic info. You can’t avoid ESIC of employees drawing @ Rs. 21000 or less per month Period.

The ESI Act envisages splitting up of a year into two contribution periods, i.e., from 1st April to 30th September and again from 1st October to 31st March. If the salary limit is crossed during a contribution period, the contribution has to be continued till the current contribution period is over, and there cannot be any discontinuance in between. So, please complete the contribution period, and you can avail the ESI benefit until the corresponding benefit period is over (1st Jan to 30th June & 1st July to 31st December, as the case may be).
