Dear Neeraj,
Plz go through section 9A of the Punjab Labour Welfare Fund Act, 1965 for this matter which clearly says that “employee” means an employee on the register of an establishment on the last working day of the month & all because of this department website does require payment of contribution for that month in which an employee is not on the rolls of the establishment on last working day of the month. Cos earlier during the manual submission used to deduct full amount irrespective to working till end of month due to ignorance or to avoid any litigation.
9A. Contribution to Fund by employers and employees.--(1) Each employee shall contribute to the Fund every month an amount equal to zero point two percent of his salary or wages or any remuneration subject to a limit of rupees twenty-five and each employer in respect of each such employee shall contribute to the Fund every month, twice the amount contributed by such employee:
Provided that the limit specified above shall be indexed annually to the consumer price index beginning from first of January each year.
Explanation – For the purpose of Sub-Section (1). “employee” means an employee on the register of an establishment on the last working day of the month.
