Nowadays PF office seems to be insisting Basic to be mandatory 50% of CTC if the basic amount is 15000 or less than 15000. My questions :
1. Is this a general rule and implemented consistently?
2. This seems to happen only when there is a scrutiny.
Last but not the least, are there formal notifications from the Labor ministry.To me,this pressure from PF office looked like a local and personal push from the local PF commissioner and over enthusiastic officers.
Can someone give some opinion which is backed by documents from labor ministry.
