Dear Pradip,

As per the PF Act, an "excluded employee" means the following:
1. A person joining any establishment with basic pay + Dearness Allowance (DA) over Rs 6500 is an excluded employee and does not come under the purview of the PF Act. There is no compulsion on the part of the employer to extend the PF benefit to him.
2. A person who has attained 58 years of age and has resigned/retired from the services of a company and has taken full and final settlement of his PF dues from his previous employer is an excluded employee. If he joins any establishment, he will not come under the purview of the PF Act.

Thank you.

Hi, An employee can opt out of the provident fund if the following criteria are met:

Opting Out of Provident Fund

If he/she is a first-time employee, i.e., at the time of joining the first job.

The employee has his or her Basic + DA (PF Wages) more than Rs. 15,000 per month.

At the time of changing a job, only when he/she does not have an existing PF account number.

If an employee wants to opt out of PF, he/she can fill out Form 11 at the time of joining his/her first job. He/She will also have to present a letter addressing the employer stating that he/she wishes to opt out of the Provident Fund Scheme.
