Dear Nirmala,

Greetings!

As per the act, "An employer is liable to pay his contribution in respect of every employee and deduct employees' contribution from the wages bill. They shall pay these contributions at the above-specified rates to the Corporation within 21 days of the last day of the calendar month in which the contributions fall due. The Corporation has authorized designated branches of the State Bank of India and some other banks to receive the payments on its behalf."

Regarding forms - SUSHMA RAWAT has posted ESI Forms in CITEHR (https://www.citehr.com/51904-esi-forms-here.html).
