Understanding ESIC Eligibility: Is a Monthly CTC of 21,000 Enough and How Is It Calculated?

Hi all,

I want to know if anyone has a CTC of 21,000/- per month, are they eligible for ESIC? If yes, how will it be calculated?

Please keep in mind ESIC applies to Gross Salary. The first condition for ESIC Limit is up to INR 21,000 gross salary.

If the Gross Salary of an employee is INR 21,000, the Employee's share of contribution would be: 0.75/100 * 21,000 = INR 157.5. And, the Employer's share of contribution would be: 3.25/100 * 21,000 = INR 787.5.

Dear Miss Sandhya,

ESI is applicable for employees whose monthly gross salary is Rs 21,000/- per month and below. ESI contribution is deducted from the gross salary earned. Please do not mix up gross salary with CTC.
