ESI Error: How Can I Fix a Mistake in an Employee's Gross Salary Entry?

Sir, I uploaded the ESI file successfully and submitted it. Later on, I realized that one employee's attendance was recorded correctly, but their gross salary was entered incorrectly (the gross salary should be $7856 but was entered as $2856) due to my mistake. What should I do? Is there a process to rectify this error, or will it cause any issues? Please assist me with this matter. Thank you.

Dear member,

To upload the returns on the website of ESIC, etc., is a procedural aspect, and many times there are changes by the concerned department in its procedure, etc. Therefore, I suggest that you please discuss telephonically or personally with the appropriate branch office of ESIC to which your unit is attached.

If you are unable to correct online, you may submit a letter to the said Branch Office intimating the correct position and asking them to make corrections accordingly.

Please process his salary difference as arrears in the next month. Accordingly, the ESIC amount will also be deducted.

Make a supplementary challan for that employee for the required month; it is available on the ESIC employer portal.
