Dear Sunita,
As far as I know that Salary and Stipend are 2 different things. On Salary which constitutes Basic, HRA, TA Etc PF and ESIC are applicable but on Stipend we need to know whether the person is a trainee, apprentice or consultant. If the person is trainee, apprentice then neither PF or ESIC is applicable as he is not an employee. However, in place of ESIC , workmen compensation act is applicable to trainee, Apprentice.
If the person is consultant giving services then TDS is deducted from consolidated salary.
regards,
Vinay
