Team,
We've received a message from EPFO saying, "Dear Employer, Your establishment XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX has failed to correctly pay both the employee and employer share in ECR for 2 employees. It is requested to file the correct ECR for all employees with the remaining share of contribution immediately - EPFO." The same message is sent to some other establishments too. As far as we are concerned, we have remitted the full contribution towards employee and employer contributions. Can anyone respond whether you've received any such message from EPFO?
Thanks & Regards,
