To get EDLI benefit, an insurance policy is not mandatory. I worked at BRAHMOS TVPM. One employee died when he was not on duty. The EPFO paid the benefit of EDLI. We had never taken an insurance policy for EDLI.

I never said EDLI is meant for death while on duty. The case here is the employee joins and meets with an accident on the same day. EDLI requires minimum service. Some insurance companies, while providing EDLI scheme, covers employees from day 1, whereas PF does not say so.

In your case, the employee died inside the factory due to an accident, which is why ESI came into the picture. However, the poster here has not mentioned whether the employee died due to an accident or it was a natural death. Whether the employee was a workman or in a managerial post to ascertain his coverage in ESI, etc.
When the poster himself does not clarify the exact details, so the reply will be on an assumption basis only.
