Dear Subhankar Shee,
You can consolidate the ESI and PF in a single paysheet for all the workmen who are earning less than Rs. 15,000 per month. The PF contribution is 12% of the basic pay, and the ESI contribution is 1.75% of the Gross Amount.
To Mr. Sethupathy,
The PF basic amount fixed at Rs. 6,500 is primarily for the EPS contribution of Rs. 541, which is 8.33%. If the basic pay exceeds Rs. 6,500, then Rs. 541 from the Employer's share will be allocated to EPS instead of 8.33%, and the remaining amount will be deposited as the Employer's share of PF instead of 3.67%.
To Alphonse,
The PF and ESI can only be claimed from the employer if the claim clause is included in the Letter of Indent/Work Order. If the contract value is determined after considering PF, ESI, PT, Service Tax, and other charges, then you are not allowed to claim from the Principal Employer.
