Whatever your PF Enforcement Officer has said are right. An employee once covered by the Scheme will continue to be covered irrespective of any hike in his salary. Therefore, you can not stop his contribution just on the ground that his salary has crossed Rs 6500.

I agree with the above views. Section 12 of the Act be seen-Employer not to reduce wages,etc. Similarly, Para 29 of the EPF Scheme onward be reffered dealing with Contributions. In fact, statutorily, Minimum Wages has nothing to do with the EPF & MP Act 1952, but under the Minimum Wages Act, Employer is bound to pay minimum wages. Under the EPF aCT, PF IS TO BE DEDUCTED ON THE BASIC WAGES PLUS DEARNESS ALLOWANCE and Retaining allowance ,if any, but Employer is not bound to deduct PF contributions above 6500 untill and unless mutually agreed upon. In case PF is being deducted at higher wages, it can not be reduced in normal cirumstances.
