Dear Mr. Chandrashekhar, I understant your problem, I experience this from many people. Most of ordinary employees or workers are worried about their pf. & most of the orgnisation are chitting with both employees & pf authorities also, 1st thing is that, as you said your employer is deducting the 24 % from employees' salary. as per general pratice employess cont. shall be 12% & employer's cont. should be 13.61%. but incase, any employee want to cont. his contb. more than 12% on that basis employer can deduct the same, but it acceptable only with his request letter. but, incase your employer deducting the 24% from the employees' salary ilegaly. so, they might be recover the their contb. from employees' salary also. & they showing to pf authority is employees' cont.12% & employer'13.61%. if i am correct so, this is very big offence, they can get the biger penelty or face some major problem. So, if you want to find out, is employer paying the pf money to pf or not..? you can do one thing, get the registration code of the establishment, go to the local PF office, explian them the whole matter.request them to get the details. I sure they will help you & insame time you can ask about the PF annual slip of the employees & you get the status of the same. if pf authority has dispach the same already & your employees' has'nt received. so, you can ask the question to your employer. if your employer not attending your any request or not ready to give any details. inthat case you put a compliant to PF athourity. I hope, by this way, you will get the satifactory reply from all. Regards,
