What is the employee exit period in ESIC? if employees salary goes upper limit of 21000.

Respected all, What is the employee exit period in ESIC? if employees salary goes upper limit of 21000.

Hi,

The ESI contribution period will be

1st April to 30th Sept
1st Oct to 31st March

If the wage of an employee exceeds the wage limit of Rs.21,000 after April or October for the respective contribution periods, then the employee continues to be an employee till the end of that contribution period. Hence, the contribution is to be deducted and paid on the total wages earned. If the wages exceeds Rs.21,000/- in the middle of contribution period then the employee will continue to contribute to ESI till the end of contribution period.
