ESI Excess Paid Adjusted Reg

mkands
Greetings,
One of our employee resigned in june month itself, but we received the information in Aug-06. We prepared the salary for the month july and paid the esi contribution also. So, in my question is we have paid excess amount [i.e. july-06 contribution] in his esi account and how to adjust the same in next month contribution.
I am waiting your reply.

Once you deducted and paid (both the shares) thru challan, the excess amount will not be deducted from next month's salary.

For adjusting excess /short payment:
If the mistake is done before the contribution period ends the amount can be adjusted.
ie in case the contribution period is 1st of April - 30th of Sep
1st of Oct - 31st of Mar.
In your case, the mistake is done before the contribution period has expired, excess payment can be adjusted before September contribution is paid

You have said that an employee has resigned in the month of Jun'06 and you have wrongly paid the contribution for the month of jul'06.
In this case, adjustment can be made in the suceeding month before the half yearly returns are to be submitted (ie) the months fall inbetween the contribution period 1/4/06 - 30/9/06, wherein the returns are to be submitted only after the payment of september'06 is made. So, you have the option of reversing this payment in the month of august'06 or september'06.
The difference needed to be highlighted in the contribution register that is maintained every month.
