Dear Sir,
I am working in manufacturing company and engaged independent contractors having their own ESIC & EPF numbers, paid all the dues including ESIC & EPF liabilities as they charged in the bills raised to company. But by chance company fails to produce the proof of deposition of the same to authorities. Company issued notice to contractors that they should submit the proof of submission of statutory liabilities to company, in reply all contractors submitted a written undertaking that they have remitted/deposited all the dues to the authorities what they have charged in bills & they will produce the records to authorities only and not to the company and company submitted the same to the authorities, whereas department demanding the same from company. Now i want to know the legal imprecations in this matter and also whether department should collect the same from contractors is this comes under their moral duty and natural justice
Regards,
Rajiv Chauhan

IT IS ORIGINAL EMPLOYER DUTY, HE MUST SATISFY HIMSELF THAT CONTRACTOR/ SUBCONTRACTOR ARE DISCHARGING SUCH LIABILITIES REGULARLY TILL U ARE AVAILING HIS SERVICES
