ESIC Details API
Verify an ESIC number and retrieve the registered employee's basic details from Employees' State Insurance records, for employment and payroll checks.
What the ESIC Details API does
ESIC Verification checks an Employees' State Insurance number and returns the basic details registered against it.
ESIC covers employees below a wage threshold, so registration is itself a signal about employment and income band. It also serves as an additional employment proof for workers who may not appear in other records.
Where teams use the ESIC Details API
Verifying employment for workers covered by ESIC
Confirming employee details during background checks
Supporting income assessment for lower-income segments
Cross-checking employment where provident fund records are absent
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Who is covered by ESIC?
Employees earning below the prescribed wage threshold at establishments within the scheme's scope. Higher earners generally appear in EPFO records instead.
How does this compare to EPFO checks?
They cover different populations. ESIC skews to lower wage bands, EPFO more broadly, so which is useful depends on the applicant.
Does it return salary?
It returns registered employee details. Coverage itself implies a wage band rather than giving an exact figure.
