Dear HR Professional,

Kindly request you to clarify my query. Is it possible that an employer can deduct PF contribution for both Employee and Employer from an employee's salary who is being paid a consolidated salary?

Would appreciate your quick response.

No.The P.F Act prohibits employer to deduct employer’s contribution from the salary of the employee. B.Saikumar HR & labour law advisor Mumbai

Dear Friends,

In the CTC concept, we used to show the Employer's share of PF, which includes the CTC figure. Whereas, we cannot include the Employer's PF. I think some friends may be confused about this.

For information, please contact me.

I worked for three years beyond my retirement. PF was deducted in the first two years. In the last year of service, I was given a consolidated pay of Rs 15,000, but PF was not deducted. It has been two years since I was superannuated and a year since I withdrew my PF balance. Now, I understand that PF should have been deducted from the consolidated pay. Is there any remedy to get the PF contribution from the employer? If so, how much will I get? Can anyone guide?
