ESI & PF Registration and Returns in Chennai, Thanjavur, Cuddalore & Ariyalur

Overview

Once your staff strength crosses the limits, PF and ESI become mandatory — and the departments are strict about monthly deadlines. Delayed PF deposits attract damages and interest; missed ESI contributions mean employees can lose medical benefits when they need them most.

We register your establishment with EPFO and ESIC, generate UAN and ESI IP numbers for your employees, compute contributions from your payroll, file the monthly ECR and ESI returns before the 15th, and help employees with withdrawals, transfers and KYC. We also handle Professional Tax and the Tamil Nadu Labour Welfare Fund.

When are PF and ESI applicable?

• EPF — establishments with 20 or more employees (voluntary coverage possible below that)
• ESI — establishments with 10 or more employees in notified areas of Tamil Nadu
• ESI covers employees earning up to ₹21,000 per month
• EPF contribution is 12% from the employee and 12% from the employer on basic wages (wage ceiling ₹15,000 for mandatory coverage)
• ESI contribution is 0.75% from the employee and 3.25% from the employer
• Both PF and ESI payments are due by the 15th of the following month
