Hi,
Please advise on how I can transfer my ESIC contributions from my new account to my old account. I already have an ESIC account, but my new company created a new ESIC account from February 2017. My previous company did not deduct ESIC because my salary exceeded the criteria. However, as per the new law, they deducted ESIC in January 2017 and created the account. In February, I joined the new company, and they created another new account. Now, the issue is that I need to claim maternity leave.
What should I do in this case? According to my company, I must complete nine months of service with them for the claim, and my confinement date is next month. It is essential that I can only take leave if it falls under ESIC. Without ESIC, I have no rights to take leave from them. Please help and advise.

Dear Riyaji,
## As per ESIC Act, any changes in employees residence/ dispensary/ employment can be carried out by the employer in the Portal as and when arises.
-ESIC contribution transfer form is used to transfer ESIC contribution of an insured person from one ESIC IP number to another ESIC IP number. This form generally required when the same person has two ESI numbers. Generally, this happens when insured person changes his or her job and doesn’t tell their previous ESIC IP number to the new employer then automatically new employer will generate another IP number to the same insured person.
-But as per Employee State Insurance Corporation rules and regulations, only one IP number will be given to every employee in their life time, the remaining IP numbers which they will get after generation of their first ESI IP number will become duplicate.
-The identification of duplicate IP numbers by ESIC website may take some day to months and only your employer can able to identify duplicate IP numbers in their employer ESI portal. When present IP number of an insured person becomes duplicate then it will appear in green colour and original IP number will appear in brackets in ESIC Portal. When this appears then employer can’t able to make payment to the duplicate IP number. In this case employer has to register original IP number of that person again in their ESI portal and then they can able make payment.
** Now the entire contribution made to the duplicate IP number will become useless until they fill and submit ESIC contribution transfer form. On this from mention Insured person’ s original and duplicate IP numbers and take employer attestation and submit it to ESIC regional office. With in 30 days, your ESIC contribution will transfer from duplicate IP number to original IP number.
