In case, after registering the establishment, at any point in time, the number of employees working in it becomes less than 20, will the Act apply? If yes, can you specify in which Act/Rules and clause No.?

Clarification on Applicability of the Employees' Provident Fund Act
The Section 1, clause no. 5 of "The Employees' Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Act, 1952" clearly states that: "An establishment to which this Act applies shall continue to be governed by this Act notwithstanding that the number of persons employed therein at any time falls below twenty."

After registering the establishment, if at any point in time the number of employees working in it becomes less than 20, will the Act still apply? If so, could you please specify in which Act/Rules and clause number?

Dear seniors, we have 5 branches in different places in Tamil Nadu. Each branch has 6 employees. To date, we have not covered the ESI and EPF, but the head office is only working with 2 members.
Future Implications of Not Contributing to PF and ESI
If we do not contribute to the PF and ESI, will any problems arise in the future? What are the provisions to consider?
