Overview

Labour Welfare Fund (LWF) is a statutory fund constituted by various State Governments under their respective Labour Welfare Fund Acts to promote the welfare of workers and their dependents. Covered establishments contribute a small periodic amount — partly deducted from the employee and partly contributed by the employer — which is deposited with the State Labour Welfare Board and used for facilities such as medical care, education, housing, and recreational and cultural activities for workers.

Applicability, contribution rates and deposit frequency differ from state to state (for example Maharashtra, Karnataka, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Delhi and others have their own rules and due dates). TaxoSure helps you register your establishment, determine the correct employee and employer contribution, and stay compliant with timely LWF deposits and the half-yearly or annual return.
