Frequently Asked Questions

Is PF and ESI mandatory for all employees?

PF is mandatory if company has 20+ employees (10+ in some states) or if employee salary > ₹15,000 (voluntary above this). ESI applies if 10+ employees and salary ≤ ₹21,000. Once covered, it continues even if thresholds change.

TDS is calculated on net taxable salary after standard deduction (₹50,000), HRA exemption, 80C investments (max ₹1.5L), 80D insurance (₹25K-₹1L), and other allowable deductions. Tax is deducted monthly and deposited by 7th of next month.

What is the deadline for payroll compliance?

PF ECR & challan: 15th. ESI challan: 15th. Professional Tax: 30th/quarter-end. TDS deposit: 7th. TDS return (Form 24Q): quarterly. Delay attracts interest and penalty.
