This is an additional query regarding cash payments to Employees ...
During the Complete Lockdown period in the month of April'2020 we paid different amount to our employees in cash selectively/ to meet-out their urgent daily needs/requirement;this was done voluntarily and our employees were graeful about it.
Now,when the work has started,we have put this amount as Labour welfare Expenses/Ex-Gratia payments in our book of accounts.No amount has been deducted or adjusted for or against the working days Salary in the next month payments.The salary paid for the month of April has been as NIL as non-working Period.
Our Query is whether there any liability occurs on our establishment towards ESI/PF obligations.
THANKS......
