Okay. But 194C says "Any kind of payment". Doesn't it include ESI reimbursement. Even reimbursement of ESI is not a statutory payment for us as we are not depositing the ESI to the government. But we are paying it to the contractor for smooth functioning of our job and it will be treated as labour cost us.
