1. An employee whose wages exceed the ceiling limit (Rs. 15000/- at present), continues to be an employee till the end of the relevant contribution period.(Proviso to Sec. 2(9) of ESI Act.). Hence, contribution is to be paid till the end of March 2011.
2. Though there is wage ceiling for coverage of an employee, there is no ceiling in the definition wages under Sec. 2(22). "Wages means all remuneration paid or payable to an employee..." Since a person drawing above 15000/- is also an employee till the end of March 2011, all remuneration drawn by him i.e. 18,000/- is wages. Hence contribution is to be paid on the total wages eaerned by him and not to be restricted to 15,000/- as suggested by a few members.
I suggest members to give their replies only they are sure about its correctness, and if possible please quote the rule position. Wrong replies amount to only misleading others.

Dear Mr. Ashok,
The block period of ESIC is April to September & October to March of a financial year. In the event of employee crossing the ceiling limit of Rs.15, 000/- in the above referred block periods, ESIC has to be deducted till the end of the block period.
In your case the employee has drawn more wages from Nov, so the ESIC to be deducted till March. After March no need deduct provided the concerned employee should draw monthly emoluments more than Rs.15000/-
Regards.

Though there is a wage ceiling limit for coverage of an employee, there is no ceiling
limit in the definition of wages for payment of contribution. Hence contribution is
payable on the total wages without any ceiling limit. As the cash benefit is
regulated on the average daily wages in a contribution period, such employee gets
fitted in to higher wage slab in the standard benefit table in view of payment of
contribution on the total wages. (source - FAQ on ESIC- maharashtra web site)
