Any payment made monthly or bimonthly is a part of wages. therefore you need to pay ESIC on it.

Dear Amandeep Mohal ji,
Our learned member Saswata Banerjee rightly pointed out that the concept of monthly payment of leave salary is wrong in law and highly risky.
In fact I was surprised to read your post and ignored the same. I would like to know how you pay leave salary monthly?
It seems you don't allow any employee to avail any leave. Why there is a leave provision in law?
