The Labour Welfare Fund (LWF)<\/strong> is a statutory employee-welfare contribution framework in India. Unlike some central labour laws, LWF is primarily governed by state-specific Labour Welfare Fund Acts and Rules<\/strong>. Therefore, applicability, contribution amounts, employee\/employer eligibility, payment frequency, and filing requirements can differ from one state to another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Labour Welfare Fund \u2013 State-wise Compliance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There is no single uniform LWF contribution applicable throughout India<\/strong>. Employers should check the relevant state’s:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Labour Welfare Fund Act<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Labour Welfare Fund Rules<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Applicability\/coverage provisions<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Employee and employer contribution rates<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Deduction and deposit dates<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Registration requirements<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Returns and prescribed forms<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  8. Penalties for delayed payment\/non-compliance<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Common Compliance Process<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Employee eligibility \u2192 Calculate contribution \u2192 Deduct employee share \u2192 Add employer share \u2192 Deposit LWF \u2192 File return, where applicable \u2192 Maintain records<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If you’re creating this for a payroll\/compliance website<\/strong>, a useful structure would be:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u201cLabour Welfare Fund Act in India: State-wise LWF Rates, Applicability, Due Dates & Compliance Guide\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I can also prepare the complete state-wise Labour Welfare Fund Act table for all Indian states, including Act name, contribution amount, applicability, due date, return\/form and official notification links<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Labour Welfare Fund act state wise shared the detail<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Yes. Below is a state-wise Labour Welfare Fund (LWF) guide for India<\/strong>, covering the states\/UTs where a standalone LWF contribution is currently reported. LWF is largely state-specific<\/strong>, so the Act, applicability threshold, contribution, deduction cycle and due date can differ significantly. The Ministry of Labour also recognizes state welfare funds such as those created under the Bombay\/Maharashtra Labour Welfare Fund legislation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    Important:<\/strong> LWF rates and applicability can be amended by state notifications. The table below is a 2026 working reference<\/strong> and should be checked against the latest state notification before payroll processing.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

    *Rates and structures can vary according to the applicable state rules\/notifications and establishment category. The 2026 consolidated remittance schedule reports these figures and applicability thresholds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    States where standalone LWF is generally reported as not applicable<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    The following states\/UTs are currently reported as having no operative standalone LWF contribution for ordinary private establishments<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Bihar, Himachal Pradesh, Jharkhand, Jammu & Kashmir, Ladakh, Lakshadweep, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Puducherry, Rajasthan, Sikkim, Tripura, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand<\/strong>, as well as Andaman & Nicobar Islands<\/strong> and Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu<\/strong>. This does not<\/strong> mean that employers have no other labour-welfare or social-security obligations in those jurisdictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Important State-wise Notes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    1. Maharashtra<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    The applicable legislation is the Maharashtra Labour Welfare Fund Act, 1953<\/strong>. The Maharashtra Labour Department lists the Act in its current legislation repository.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The currently reported contribution is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Employee: \u20b925<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Employer: \u20b975<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Total: \u20b9100<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Contribution cycle: June and December<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Remittance: generally by 15 July and 15 January<\/strong> for the respective periods.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      2. Tamil Nadu<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Tamil Nadu has the Tamil Nadu Labour Welfare Fund Act, 1972<\/strong>. The Tamil Nadu Labour Welfare Board was constituted under this Act. The state’s Labour Department states that employees contribute \u20b920 per worker per year<\/strong>, employers \u20b940<\/strong>, and the Government contributes \u20b920<\/strong> per worker per year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      For payroll purposes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Employee: \u20b920\/year<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Employer: \u20b940\/year<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Government: \u20b920\/year<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Employee + employer: \u20b960\/year<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Deduction: 31 December<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Remittance: generally 31 January<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        3. Karnataka<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        For Karnataka, the 2026 schedule reports:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • Employee: \u20b950\/year<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Employer: \u20b9100\/year<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Total: \u20b9150\/year<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Deduction: 31 December<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Remittance: 15 January<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          4. Kerala<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

          Kerala requires special attention because the contribution depends on the establishment category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          For shops and establishments<\/strong>, the reported contribution is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          • Employee: \u20b950\/month<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Employer: \u20b950\/month<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

            For certain other establishments:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              \n
            • Employee: \u20b945\/half-year<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Employer: \u20b945\/half-year<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

              The applicable periodicity therefore needs to be determined from the establishment’s classification before payroll processing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              5. Andhra Pradesh<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

              The current consolidated schedule reports:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                \n
              • Employee: \u20b930\/year<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Employer: \u20b970\/year<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Total: \u20b9100\/year<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Deduction: 31 December<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Remittance: 31 January<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                6. Telangana<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

                The reported 2026 contribution is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  \n
                • Employee: \u20b92\/year<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
                • Employer: \u20b95\/year<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
                • Total: \u20b97\/year<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
                • Deduction: 31 December<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
                • Remittance: 31 January<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                  LWF Compliance Process for Employers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

                  A typical LWF compliance workflow is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  1. Identify the employee’s work location<\/strong>
                  \u2193
                  2. Identify the applicable State LWF Act\/Rules<\/strong>
                  \u2193
                  3. Check establishment applicability and employee coverage<\/strong>
                  \u2193
                  4. Calculate employee contribution<\/strong>
                  \u2193
                  5. Deduct employee contribution from payroll<\/strong>
                  \u2193
                  6. Add employer contribution<\/strong>
                  \u2193
                  7. Deposit the combined contribution with the Labour Welfare Board<\/strong>
                  \u2193
                  8. File the prescribed return\/form, where applicable<\/strong>
                  \u2193
                  9. Maintain payroll and LWF records<\/strong>
                  \u2193
                  10. Track amendments and revised contribution rates<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  For a Payroll Compliance Software<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

                  If you’re preparing this content for a payroll\/statutory compliance platform<\/strong>, I recommend maintaining these fields for every state:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  Note:<\/strong> There are conflicting figures in some online LWF tables\u2014for example, rates for Haryana, Kerala, Maharashtra, Telangana and West Bengal\u2014because different sources appear to reflect different amendments, establishment categories or historical rates. For a production payroll system, the latest state government notification should take precedence<\/strong> over secondary compliance websites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
