I am working with a manufacturing company as an HR executive. I have a doubt regarding PF. Earlier, my company was deducting PF on the full basic, i.e., if an employee has a basic salary of 10,000, the employee's share was 12%, which is 1,200, and similarly, the employer's share was 1,200 (12%) along with additional admin charges. However, the company has now introduced a new policy stating that they will no longer contribute their share based on the full basic salary as they previously did; instead, they will only contribute based on a basic salary of 6,500.

My doubt is, can we reduce the basic salary amount from 10,000 to 6,500 for those employees who are already contributing based on a basic salary of 10,000?

hi Debo, you should not reduce the basic salary only the Employer’s contribution can be restricted to 780/- i.e., - 12% of 6500.
