As per the present ESI rules employee who earns 15000 per month also cover under this act. So you need apply ESI for all employees in your organization.

Hi Prema,
If employees are working 10 or more in the company the ESIC is applicable to enroll the registration. So go through the tamilnadu ESIC act. they will guide all about ESIC registration and all.

Hi,
If ESI is deducted from the salary more than 10000 (Gross) before May 2010, will that be a legal deduction ?
My gross salary was more than 10,000 and the company deducted ESI from June 2009 till June 2010.
Please send me the update,

Hi Prema,
ESIC deduction is a statutory compliance. So it is mandatory to deduct ESIC for the employees whose monthly gross salary is 15k or below.
Its better if you go through the ESI act.

Dear Prema
First please mention whether any manufacturing activity (factory) is being carried out in your company, if so, then you are required to have a minimum qualifying strength of 10 for coverage under ESI.
Suppose, your co. doesn't manufacture but only does service (establishment) then your minimum qualifying threshold would be 20.
From 1/6/10 the ESI Act has been amended, hence no need to worry about the number of employees above or below 15000. Post amendment only the strength matters and not the wages. Since you have 120 employees you ur co is coverable w.e.f.1/6/10 irrespective of the salaries paid to your emplyees

FIRST please check out the area in which your company is situated is "NOTIFIED" by appropriate government as the "ESI COVERAGE AREA", if so you are require to comtribute and deduct the employees contributions from the eligible employee and to subscribe the same in time to avoid any penal charges.
