Dear Mr.Narasimha Rao .M,
To EPF, contribution on arrears for the full period has to be remitted. Regarding ESI, I shall quote ESI Coimbatore as, "As and when any increase in the wages/ remuneration is declared with retrospective effect, the liability towards payment of contribution accrues only in the month in which the decision is announced and no contribution is payable on the arrears pertaining to the period prior to the month of declaration/ announcement."

Sir, if the company has declared in the month of April, 2015 about award of increments , then contribution under ESI Act, 1948 is payable on arrears of such increments for the months of April & May, 2015.

Hello Narasimha,
Please note that you'll begin to get the interest on PF from the 2nd month from when you remit the dues in the PF account. When you pay arrears, there is increase in Basic Salary too. Accordingly the PF contribution also increases and accordingly the dues going into acct. 1, 2 & 21 increases. So, the member's contribution does not suffer here. However, the issue is with the interest paid out. All these members lose out the interest for those month for which the increment payout is delayed. Let me give you an example to explain. Presume that the normal increment is from 1st Apr'15 and the arrears are paid out from Jun'15 onwards (means 2 month's delay). So, the members will lose out interest for 2 months, but only on the arrear amount (the difference amount being remitted into your PF account - Account 1).
Cheers, A.B.
