Late payments of EPF and ESI attract a mandatory 12% p.a. interest for each day of delay. Additionally, authorities may impose penal damages ranging from 5% to 25% p.a. depending on how long the payment is overdue. Failure to deposit the employee's deducted portion can also lead to criminal liability and the loss of tax deductions for the business.
