No answer from them irrespective of that they are saying as per the recent schedule basic (5236)+VDA(4582) = 9818. i don't understand the meaning of 9818. Can anyone can help regarding this.

"when i ask them as per the EPF rules , labour law etc my basic should be 10000/-."
Whoever told you this has given you incorrect information. There is no labour law on fixation of basic as % of gross salary. If your basic is decided as 9818 it is ok.
