Who We Help
Why ESI Returns Get Filed Late
Most late ESI filings are avoidable. They usually come down to a few common gaps.
Monthly due date simply forgotten
Wage ceiling and basic pay ratio calculated incorrectly
Employee contribution details not reconciled before filing
No one tracking multiple employee ESI numbers consistently
Elixir Filings tracks your monthly deadline and reconciles contributions before filing, so nothing is late.

01
ESI Compliance Services
ESI, or Employees State Insurance, requires monthly contribution payment and return filing for every covered employee earning up to Rs. 21,000 in gross wages, or Rs. 25,000 for persons with disabilities. The employer contributes 3.25 percent and the employee contributes 0.75 percent of wages, due by the 15th of the following month. Under the Labour Codes in effect since November 2025, basic pay plus dearness allowance must equal at least 50 percent of gross wages for ESI calculation purposes. Elixir Filings manages this filing every month, so nothing is ever late.
