When a builder is hired to repair building; he employs his labour for work. Later he gives invoice of, say, 1 lac.
He is not registered under ESI law. Are we liable under ESI for that labour? And how the liability will be determined and paid?
Please guide.
Thank you,

Dear Mr Manish Kumar
In the absence of separate ESI code for the Contractor, as Principal employer - you will have to recover 6.5% on 25% of the Bill amount and remit the same to the ESI authorities. (some case laws mentioned below for your reference).
• When the employer fails to give break up of the amount spent, construction, repair etc., 25% of it will be treated as 'wages' for ESI's contribution purposes.
Shree Sivakami Mills Ltd" Madurai (represented through Managing Director) v ESI Corporation, Madras (through its Regional Director) Madras, 2001 LLR 370 (Mad HC)
• Employees engaged by the contractor in an establishment are liable to be covered under ESI Act.
Employees' State Insurance Corporation v. Vijayamohini Mills, (1990) II LLJ 464: 1990 LLR 305: 1990 (1) LLN 902 (Ker HC).
• The principal employer will be liable to pay the ESI's contributions of the employees employed through contractor.

In the absence of individual coverage of the workers, you will have to remit the contribution to ESI under ' Misc ' head in lumpsum. Regards

Thank you for your prompt reply. So on online portal of ESIC, it should be paid using "Omitted Wages Challan". Right!?
