17 July 2013 Dear sir,

17 July 2013 Penalty will be charged at the time of inspection by the PF officials.

30 July 2013 Thank you for your reply it is really very helpful to us recently we received a notice from PF office saying that
"As regards the continuing default in payment of dues, we would request you to make an immediate payment of the same and submit the relevant challan and returns. Please note that if dues for more than one month are in default, Please use separate challan for payment and form 12A for each month for return filing purposes"
Please help out how to calculate interest for each month and what is the procedure to follow?


30 July 2013 Pay PF as per monthly calculation and remit it in seperate challan for each month PF. Along with this attach Form 12A and return the filing. No need to calculate interest. Once PF office reconcile your payment, they will send another notice to pay interest and penalty.
If you still need interest calculation sheet, email me @anbuvi2002@yahoo.co.in

30 July 2013 Thank you so much sir for your prompt and clear answer to our query can you please explain how to fill form 12A as it shows to give personal information-it is to be filled for each individual employee. Please clarify us.

30 July 2013 To my knowledge, no need to fill form 12A, 5 & 10. You can do e-filing in PF website for each month payment. Get userid and password to access epf employer login

30 July 2013 But there is specified in pf notice to submit form 12A.So please clarify whether submit or not

30 July 2013 May be its a old format letter. now a days we need to submit it electronically. If you still have doubt, call and speak with PF office. Surely they will help without any hesitattion.
