Thanks for your reply, but the problem here is the employer deducts ESI Contribution above the wage ceiling of 21000 from the beginning of the contribution period (from October) and submits it to ESI. ESI accepts this contribution (no objection from ESI until the death of the IP). Later on, the employee dies on duty due to an employment injury, and when the family goes to ESI, they refuse to provide Dependent benefits, citing the reason that the IP was drawing a salary higher than the ESI wage ceiling. ESI contributions are deducted from the employee's salary and submitted to ESI until death. Now, what can the family do in this case?
Thank you
