1) Keeping in view the problem of system breakdown faced by the employers in filing ESI contribution for the contribution period April 2021 to September 2021 within 42 days, the government had relaxed due dates and onetime relaxation was granted for filing of contribution for contribution period from 1st April 2021 to 30th September 2021, up to 15.12.2021.

2) Due date was extended for filing return of contribution for the contribution period of October 2021 to March 2022 up to 26.05.2022 instead of 11.05.2022.
