Hi all,
As i have said, you may get the exception even if your company is applicable under the ESIC.
Subject to provided benefits are similar to ESIC's benefits or superior & employees are agreed on the same.
So, Once the ESIC authority satisfy with you response, they may grand you the exemption certificate under the same.
Please refer the Section 87
As per section 87:-
There appropriate government may, by notification in the official gazette and subject to such conditions as may be specified in the notification, exempt any factory or establishmnt, or class of factories or establishment of any specified area from the operation of this act for the period not exceeding one year and may from time to time by like notification renew any such exemption for periods not exceed one year at a time.
1(Provided that such exemptions may be granted only if the employees in such factories, or establishment are otherwise in receipt of benefits substantially, similar or superior to the benefits provided under this act.)
(For More clarity refer the section 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 91-A, 91-AA, 91-B, 91-C)
