Even though the DA has been revised over the last couple of months, could anybody kindly share the Circular or Gazetted Notice from a genuine source that states the rise in ESI & PF limits? My manager mentioned that the Notice is still in paper form and will take some time to be implemented practically. Here, I have observed the same.
I am attaching an article related to this thread. It might be of some help. It states that the ESIC limit shall be increased, although the exact date of its effect is not yet known. We are waiting for the gazette to get approved.
The wage ceiling under the ESI Act, 1948, is still ₹15,000 per month. The appropriate government has not yet issued any notification of its intention to raise this wage ceiling.
No such notification in this regard has been circulated by the government to date on the rising wage ceiling for PF from ₹6,500 to ₹15,000 and ESIC from ₹15,000 to ₹25,000 respectively. Please wait for the notification; until then, we consider the same as proposed.
Regards,
Eswar
