Hi,
From past 2 yrs i was working in a corporate company (this is my first job), it has provided me PF as my basic salary is less than 6500.
Right now, i was moving to another company where my basic salary is more than 6500.
As per new company's policy, there were not providing PF to the employees who are getting more than 6500 basic salary.
But, im interested to continue my PF account, so i asked that company to give the opportunity, then their said you can continue it but both employee and employers should be payed by myself..
Question 1.
I heard that, there is an option to move the PF accont to personal, such that i can contribute to it??? is it possible. please let me know
Question 2:
Although the company accepted to give the opportunity, then their said you can continue it but both employee and employers should be payed by myself..
Here the issue is I have to afford more than 4000 per month, as per my situation i cant afford such a large amount in to it.
Please give me a solution

Once earlier you were EPF member, it need to be continued with base salary of Rs 6500, and is not optional. However You need first to check if the new employer has some separate social security provident fund.

Hi manu,
I appreciate your sharing your case here?
My suggestion, is insist with your employer that you want to continue the PF. Don't mention and commit yourself for all contribution and neither sign or give your commitment to it. I personally feel its but an excuse by employers to avoid their obligation by not contributing to PF. Do not discontinue your scheme and its my strong suggestion continue it. I discontinued and I know the lose I am at today.
Besides, Yes, you can open your own PF account under NPS. I have attached a wonderful article for your study.
Hope its helpful.

Dear All;
According to the provisions under the EPF Act and Scheme, a member continues to be a member until he withdraws his accumulations in the fund. This means that you will continue to be a member without taking any action.

Mr. Vibhakar has given the correct views. I may add here that under Para 31 of the EPF Scheme,Employer,s share is not to be deducted from the members.

Hi, The limit of PF member-
ship is limited to the persons
who draws the salary of Rs. 6500/- and beyond that (for
a new employee) Company will
not cover it. Though you arejoining the othercompany at more than Rs.6500/- salary, you can ask the company to deduct the PF
Contribution on Rs.6500/-
only and contribute addi-
tionally to Voluntary PF
from your side. However
you can bargain with the
Company to enhance your pay
to this extent to compensate/

Dear All
Mr Eswararao Ivaturi's comment is correct, you no need to pay Rs.4000/- as pf contribution as per your current basic you just inform your employer to deduct the pf Contribution on Rs600/- which will worked out Rs780/- employees contribution and 885 employers contribution including administrative and edli so total would be Rs1665. and now a days no company is paying Employer's contribution as such it is added in employees CTC so more over all the cases employees are paying the both contributions.
thanks and regards
