Sir. If the principal employer or the contractor wants to show that it's employees are earning more than 21000 per month than how they will show means they have to show the wages register or any other affidavit or something else. Worker of trade union employer will show or trade union will give any details

The employees are covered only if their salary is below Rs. 21,000 per month and the organization is covered under ESI. The ESIC has fixed the contribution rate of the employees at 0.75% of their wages and the employer's contribution at 3.25% of the wages for FY 2023-24.

If the employees are paid the salary by bank then the bank statement would be sufficient to prove that.

Daily wages workers cannot be considered as permanent employees hence they are not eligible for the benefits of permanent employees.
Since the employer is paying the salary by cash, it can be considered as contractual labours.
They may not even be eligible for EPF facilities.
