Washing allowance is not part of wages as per Memo No.Ins.III/2/1/65 dt. 8.2.1967. It says "It is a sum paid to defray special expenses entailed by the nature of employment and as such this amount does not amount to wages." Also, to know other exclusions see this Coverage Under Employees State Insurance (ESI) Act: Who Can Avail ESI Benefits along with this to know about the contributions Employees State Insurance Contribution Rates, Rules, Procedure, Penalty and Related Matters
