[(5) (a) If any contribution payable under this Act is not paid by the principal employer on the date on which such contribution has become due, he shall be liable to pay simple interest at the rate of twelve per cent. per annum or at such higher rate as may be specified in the regulation till the date of its actual payment:

The Supreme Court has ruled that Employees State Insurance Corporation (ESIC) cannot levy damages for employers’ failure to deposit contributions of employees and establishments. Existence of mens rea (guilt mind) to contravene a statutory provision must also be held to be a necessary ingredient for levy of damages and/or the quantum upon the employer, said the apex court.
