ESI is applicable only to the payouts that appear on your monthly paystub and applicable upto and including Rs.10,000/- Gross per month. If you want to add up all the other x,y,z incentives received by other means, then the total salary would sometimes cross the ceiling and applicability may not arise. So only your payslip figure is eligible for ESI.

Incentives paid at interval of 3 months will not attract ESI contribution. However if paid monthly then ESI contribution is to be paid on the incentives subject to that the total does not cross Rs.10000/- pm

Dear Jossy Justin,
Since you have not mentioned the interval of payment of Incentive therefore, I am producing here the rule that allowances, incentive, profit sharing etc. whatever nomenclature, if being paid on regular monthly basis and Gross up to Rs. 10000/- will be coveable under the Act and Contribution has to be deducted and deposited.
Any allowance, Incentive etc. being paid more than the interval of two months is exempted to consider the wages for E.S.I. contribution.
I would suggest you to check if on adding said incentive with the monthly salary comes out more than 10000/- then show it on wage register on monthly basis, then your employees automatically become exempted from E.S.I. purview, other wise pay it on quarterly basis so that the amount of incentive will be exempted from E.S. I. contribution.
Thanks

Dear Friend,
Generaly ESI is deducted at monthly gross salary and if you are paying incentives monthly you have to deduct esi otherwise you can pay incentives quartery or half yearly to ge exemption from deducting esi.
