ESIC does not grant codes / registrations in non implemented zones, it is the duty of employer to apply and get the reply from ESIC for their safeguard
ESIC threshold limit is 10(Ten) however to make eligibility, inspectors count the directors also. but at the time of Contribution directors are excluded
Once the Code is allotted, the ESIC portal accepts return and payment both.
