Should PF Deduction Be Mandatory for All Employees? Seeking Advice on Challenging Current Rules

ymehta
Dear sir,
As per the PF & MP Act of 1952, the eligibility for PF is as follows:
1) If the employee has a salary up to ₹6500 (Basic & DA), the employer is liable to deduct the PF from the employee's salary.
2) If the employee has a salary more than ₹6500 (Basic & DA), the PF will be deducted with the consent of the employer and employee, meaning it cannot be deducted without agreement.

My query is, can anyone proceed with a case against the PF department to amend its rule of PF deduction and make it mandatory for all employees?

Please help.

I have joined a company 4 months ago, and now I'm presented with a better opportunity at a different company. I am inquiring whether I can withdraw the Provident Fund (PF) accumulated in my account during these months. If so, could you please guide me through the procedure?

Regards,
John

Provident Fund Deduction and Legal Implications

PF is deducted as per the provisions of the Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provision Act. PF authorities do not have any role in it; they just follow what the act states. According to the act, the applicability of the provident fund is up to a basic salary of ₹6500. How can you file a case against PF authorities? What is their fault?

PF Calculation for Short-Term Employment

If an employee leaves the job after working for only 4 months, how is the PF calculation done in this case? Does it mean the employee is entitled to receive both sides of the PF amount or not?
