How to Update ECR for NCP Days When Unpaid Leave Becomes Paid?

Dear All,

The NCP days are mentioned when filing ECR monthly returns for leaves without pay. Suppose the NCP has been stated as 3 days this month, and later those 3 days of leave are regularized or converted to leave with pay. How should one make changes in the ECR concerning the previously mentioned 3 NCP days in the prior returns? Kindly provide clarification.

Regards,
Vadiraj Kulkarni

Dear Vadiraj, there is no provision for correction of NCP days entered at the time of filing Monthly ECR. The system you are following is not correct. ECR is generated based on Monthly Salary Abstract. Before the generation of Salary Abstract, you have to incorporate Absence/LOP. The ECR filed should match with your Salary Abstract. Please put proper systems in place so that before salary generation, Leave Register is updated.

Dear Vadiraj, as mentioned, you have marked 3 days as NCP in the current contribution period, which means you have not paid the salary for the said 3 days. Consequently, you have paid less PF contribution in that month. Later, once his leaves are regularized, you paid the salary for the said three days. Therefore, these three days' payment and PF contribution shall be paid through arrears in the next month.

Please mention the basic salary and contribution for the said three-day payment in arrears while uploading the sheet.

Thanks
