Here is the reply to your questions:
01. The due date of payment of PF liability is 15th of next month. Say PF liability for April to be deposited in bank by 15th May.
02. Employer's obligation to contribute to PF is 12% & for employees 12% is minimum & maximum can be 20%.
03A. IF the PF contribution is not paid within due date then the employer contribution will deemed income of the employer u/s 2(24)(x)& same is permanent disallowance. Foe employee contribution the same will be allowed u/s 43B if the payment made before due date of return of income.
03B. The employer contribution will be treated as income u/s 2(24(x) & employee contribution will be disallowed u/s 43B in the year of liability & will be allowed as deduction in the year of payment.
