Employees' State Insurance Corporation [Esic] — About Demand Notice Period - Covid Lockdown

Address:

Coimbatore

Dear Sir,

We have Stated a Axenus Global Solution Private Limited Company in 2017, For ITES Project Work in Rural Area to provide job opportunities for Rural Un-Employed Graduate. But due to various reasons, we can't start the company, and we wind up the office space in Dec-2017, Due to the ignorance in statutory filing, We fail to inform MCA, EPF, ESI, GST. Due to non-filling, expect ESI all others have dissolved those registrations, Even we don't run our Company in Single Day, For a Proof, I will attach the company bank Statement from the beginning, Even i don't raise any GST Bill also, This all has happened only of ignorance statutory filing only. Right now I am working as Senior Citizen Caretaker, Due to this lockdown restriction and COVID Protocol for Senior citizens. I cant move around, But at September end i have received one Notice form ESI to my old office address, even i heard that notice information very delayed by January 2022, Now I am trying to resolve the issue, Because not even I run the company for a single day, I have a major proof for that, 22-Feb-2022 I approached with Deputy & Asst Director in ESI Coimbatore Office, they are refuse to discuss Because the notice valid period is 60 days. They have issued a notice date by 22-Sep-2022, After October in Tamilnadu Government imposed some covid protocol rules, It's totally unfair to highlight the 60 days period in this Pandemic situation, Right now also I have all proof for non-operation since Dec- 2017. In various Cases Central Government and the supreme court also mentioned that the Grace Period of Notice is Subject to Extended, Now I request with ESI Officer to provide a Hearing to justify my side reason for non-filling of ESI even I have a valid proof for that, For your reference, I have enclosed the ESI Notice.
