Saxena,

The rule was earlier amended in 2014, wherein it was stated in Rule 5(1) that returns shall be submitted by 1st February. The proviso to 5(1) stated that the time limit is as specified under Section 19. This proviso is going to be deleted.

Does this mean the manual return is no longer required but the Unified Annual Return in the Shram Suvidha Portal is required?

Before the amendment Rule read as follows:

Annual returns

5. (1) Every employer shall, on or before the 1st day of February each year, upload annual returns in Form D on the web portal of the Ministry of Labour and Employment, providing information on the particulars specified for the preceding year.

Provided that the annual returns shall be filed within the time limit specified in Section 19 of the Act.

(2) Every employer may file annual returns in Form D to the Inspector on or before the 1st day of February each year, giving information on the particulars specified for the preceding year:

Provided that during inspection, the inspector shall request the production of the accounts, books, registers, and other documents if they are maintained in manual or electronic form, as the case may be.

Explanation: For the purposes of this sub-rule, the expression "electronic form" shall have the same meaning as assigned to it in clause (r) of Section 2 of the Information Technology Act, 2000 (21 of 2000).

Section 19 prescribes a time limit of 8 months for payment of bonus. It does not prescribe a time limit for filing a return. The Proviso to Rule 5(1) which referred to Section 19 has been omitted. It is now clear that the return has to be filed by the 1st of February as provided in Rule 5(1).
