PF and ESIC management services for employers

Registration, monthly contribution, filing, claims support and UAN management for PF and ESIC — for your direct employees and for the contract workforce your compliance sits behind.

The real problem

Why this usually goes wrong

PF and ESIC failures rarely come from intent. They come from a wrong wage-component split, a missed UAN transfer or a contractor's unpaid challan. All three are avoidable with a monthly discipline.

FAQ

Questions buyers actually ask

Who pays PF for contract workers?

The contractor deposits it, but the principal employer is liable if the contractor defaults. This is why we verify contractor challans against actual deployed headcount before invoice clearance.

What are the current PF and ESIC contribution rates?

Rates are notified by EPFO and ESIC and revise periodically — we apply the rate current in the contribution month and show the computation on every challan. Confirm the prevailing rate with us before budgeting.

What happens if a worker already has a UAN?

It's transferred, not duplicated. Duplicate UANs are a common and avoidable mess that blocks the worker's withdrawal years later.

Do you help workers with PF withdrawal?

Yes, directly. Worker-level claim support materially reduces attrition, because unresolved PF is a frequent reason skilled workers leave.
