September ECR due 15 OctoberClarifiedEPFO’s FAQs on the revised wage ceiling tell employers to file a single ECR for September 2026, computing contributions separately for 1–16 September (₹15,000 ceiling) and 17–30 September (₹25,000 ceiling). The employee share that could not be deducted may be recovered in the next payroll, but the full remittance is still due by 15 October. The EDLI maximum stays at ₹7 lakh.
