Employees earning above 15k gross P/M if willing to contribute for ESIC monthly, will they eligible for ESIC benefits?

1. Sir, so far there is no further enhancement of wage ceiling from Rs.15000/-
2. Kindly intimate whether Director of the company is receiving wages or remuneration ? If so, at what monthly rate ?. So far as I understand, partners in a partnership concern are not the employees of the firm and hence, not coverable.
