Hi All, My company deducts Rs. 780/- as PF for employees who are earning more than Rs. 6500/- as well. Is this a correct practice? Do you have any documentation that supports this?

Thanks,

The ceiling limit of salary for EPF is Rs. 6,500, i.e., the statutory obligation is only up to the ceiling limit. Beyond the ceiling, it is optional. This is the case for those already registered with PF. Regarding a new employee whose salary is above the ceiling limit, the employer is not obliged (statutorily) to remit PF.

Dear all, Actually in PF deduction the amount that is deducted from employee and the amount contributed by the company should be same. But how many companies are doing this?
