Components of Gross Salary
Kindly suggest to me what components come under Gross Salary, such as Basic, HRA, DA, Other Allowance, Travel Allowance, etc. Are these enough, or will more components be included?
Washing Allowance and ESI Bracket
I would like to know if the washing allowance is considered part of the gross salary so that it falls under the ESI bracket. Also, what components come under the ESI Bracket?
Thanks & Regards,

Recently, I attended an interview at a pharmaceutical company where they asked me about the uniform washing allowance. I would like to understand what components are included in the Gross Salary as we calculate ESI based on the Gross.

Washing Allowance and ESI Eligibility
Washing allowance shall be taken into consideration for ESI eligibility, i.e., a gross salary of 15,000. However, no ESI shall be deducted on the washing allowance as it's not considered wages under the ESI Act.

Thank you for the information. Please clarify whether the washing allowance is calculated on a monthly basis among the gross amount, in which case it will fall under the ESIC bracket. If we calculate it on a bimonthly or quarterly basis, it will not attract ESIC.

Washing Allowance and ESI Considerations
Washing allowance is part of the gross pay. If given to uniformed staff, it is excluded from ESI. However, if given to non-uniformed staff, it is chargeable. The washing allowance is calculated based on the number of uniform sets provided.
Any payout made bi-monthly, quarterly, or annually could attract PF and ESI. This is determined by the authority that inspects PF and ESI records. The basic consideration is the P&L statement and trading account of the company. Anything that is booked as salary and wages attracts PF and ESI.

If any company has an agreement with the union to provide uniforms to employees, then the washing allowance does not count towards ESI wages. Otherwise, the washing allowance is included in the ESI wages.

As clarified in the previous message, ESI is not applicable to Washing Allowance if the Management has provided a Uniform to the Staff for whom Uniform Allowance is paid.
In the absence of the provision of a Uniform facility and if you are paying Washing Allowance, then ESI becomes payable on the Washing Allowance. It's a settled law.

Washing Allowance shall not attract ESIC contribution as per Section 2(22)(c). It's a defray special expense. There is no such limit given under any statute or gazette to date.
