Sir(s),
1. Employment of at least 10 or more person is required in order to make any "shop" eligible for separate coverage and obtaining of separate code number under ESI Act, 1948 and rules/regulations framed thereunder.
2. However, if the principal employer to whom you want to supply the engineers on contract basis agrees, then you can make compliance in respect of ESI on the code number of principal employer itself.
3. I hope, you may also be aware that present coverage limit under ESI Act is Rs. 15000/- per month. Therefore, this aspect may kindly also be kept in view while considering coverage under above Act.
