Hello Everyone, I have a peculiar question. None of our employees are below the salary limit required for PF, so as an employer, I am guessing we don't have to contribute to PF. However, as a token of appreciation to our employees, our company has decided to contribute PF for all our employees. So my understanding is that we will fall under (Voluntary Provident Fund) VPF.
Question on Employer Contribution Limit
So the question is, is there a limit on the contribution from the employer side regarding this? Will it still be 12%? Please let us know.
