Yes! for all Pvt Ltd by default PF and ESI registration will get...For PF not compulsory and ESI issue notification that upto 6month not compulsory but after that you have to login into the portal and get the extension for another six month else you will get notice.
sir In mhy case I have forget to extend the ESIC and company has two employees so now what to do ? file nill ESIC return or need to deduct and charge ESIC on that two employees?@@TaxEdupreneur
@@ehjazsavaijiwala2121 Try to login and check if any chance to extend, if not then visit your RO office and check any possibilities to extend, else you have to deduct and pay ESI
@TaxEdupreneur I have a similar situation as above but no employees, the RO office has said us “ submit your employee and their salary record to the ESI office in every six months and file zero amount challan to avoid defaulter action.” How to file zero amount challan ?
There are more than 10 employees in my company, but no one is falling below the threshold (earning less than 21,000). Do I need to file Nil returns with a blank excel template or do I need to update employee's details, can you please let me know?
same Q.. Need to update employee's details on ESIC portl? ( No one is falling below the threshold limt) or Just download the blank excel and reupload & submit the same. Pls advise.
@@TaxEdupreneur Thank you for the reply. I tried logging to ESI portal but an error message 'ESIC employer code blocked contact RO SRO' is being displayed. What can be the possible reason for this?
@@ashastephy2487 You may not filed the ESI return from long time or They send the notice and you not response. Multiple reason will be there to blocked the Login. Without delay visit to your ESI regional office and check with them.
@@TaxEdupreneur Hi Sir, I wanted to update you about the employer code blocked issue that I mentioned earlier. I contacted local RO office, apparently they didn't block us. They suggested us to log-in with a different browser (we were using Chrome). So, we tried logging with Opera Mini and it worked. Thank You for the help.
