Hi Sowmya, We have a blog that covers certain details about the statutory record retention requisites. I am sharing the link - [Records Retention Obligations of Employer (greythr.com)](https://blog.greythr.com/records-retention-obligations-of-employer) for your reading. Other than the statutory mandate, all other records to be retained will be as per the internal governance and policy of the employer/establishment. Hope the above helps. Regards, Bhuvana Anand ---
