Can someone tell me how to generate an ECR file for more than one thousand employees to submit the PF challan? Is there any shortcut method instead of doing data entry for the wages of each employee? Please help me regarding this as there are only a few days remaining for the challan submission.

Yes, you can generate an ECR file in a very simple and easy way through eReturn. You can import data from your Excel CSV file (import data structure given in eReturn). Additionally, you can create your own Excel file and convert it to a text file for ECR upload without using eReturn.

It is very easy to generate an ECR file if you have the following details:

1. PF number of the member
2. Name of the member
3. PF salary
4. Working days/NCP days

In addition to the above, for new members, Father/Husband Name, Date of Birth, and Date of Joining are required. For the left members, Date of Leaving is required.

First of all, you may register in Employer E-Sewa. If already registered, log in to E-Sewa. There is an option to download on the homepage. You can download the ECR instructions from there. That would help you generate the ECR file.

I am familiar with the entire procedure; the only difference is that in my previous company, I had to do it for approximately 50 employees. Now, in my new workplace, the employee strength is in thousands. Thanks for your response.

Guys, thank you so much for your response. I have uploaded the entire data in CSV format. Now, the problem is that I am not able to make Form 12A. I am also not clear on the concept of 12A. Previous month's members, new members joined, and members left are not tallying.

Please help.

Please follow the steps as given by Mr. Starlet and upload the text file. After uploading, a challan will be generated with a TRN number. You can take a printout and make the payment. The details of contributions, new members' details, and existing members' details can be downloaded. You need not prepare Form 12A, 5, & 10.
