PF and ESIC both are calculated on Basic salary+DA. The rate of Pf contribution is 12% of Basic+DA from either side. And For esic the contribution is 1.75% from employee and 4.75% from employer. Other than this 1.61% is added by employer as EDLI charges.

The ceiling rate for PF is 6500/-month and for ESIC 15000/-.

ESI deduction is mandatory in your case, it does not matter that it is a IT co.
