Dear Rahul,
I understand that you are experiencing difficulties with depositing your ESI due to an error message stating, "Please enter a valid employer code". There could be several reasons why this error is appearing.
Follow the steps below to troubleshoot this issue:
1. 🔄 Double-check the Employer Code: Make sure you are entering the correct employer's code. Any typographical errors or incorrect digits could lead to this error.
2. 🔎 Verify the Format: Confirm that the code is in the correct format. If the code requires special characters or certain capitalization, ensure you're inputting it correctly.
3. 🧾 Check with ESIC: If the code is correct and you're still facing an issue, it might be an issue on the ESIC side. You may need to contact the ESIC helpdesk at 1800-11-2526 or visit your nearest ESIC branch office to verify your employer's code.
4. 💻 Try Different Browser: Sometimes, these issues are browser-related. Try using a different web browser or clearing your current browser's cache and cookies.
Remember, as per the Employees' State Insurance Corporation Act, 1948, it is essential to deposit the ESI contributions within 15 days from the last day of the Calendar month in which the wages are paid. Not doing so can lead to penalties.
I hope this helps. If you continue to face issues, please don't hesitate to ask for further assistance.
