12 March 2015 Dear sir,

I had one doubt please clarify with example.,

If Mr.A is an employee in X ltd. He is married, His parents were expired. only his spouse parents were alive, and He has only his spouse parents they are fully dependent on him.,

In this case shall his mother in law and Father in law is considered as Relative?
X Ltd wants to add his name in PF & esi rolls, then Mr.A is consider his Mother in law & Father In Law as a relative as per ESI & PF acts? Please clarify and please quote the reference?

12 March 2015 Hi,

Seems you intend to know whether Mr A can nominate his MIL & FIL as nominees under the PF Act - the ans would be 'Yes' as

The Assurance amount is payable to the nominees made by the employee
under Employees Provident Funds Scheme 1952
or
under the provident fund exempted under section 17 of the Act.

12 March 2015 what is the meaning of dependent parents?
Is dependent parents includes MIL & FIL, if they are wholly dependent on him?

In Gartuity act relative includes MIL & FIL. But in ESI act it is only mentioned dependent parents of employee?

Is there any exemption in this case?

12 March 2015 Point no. (3) in my second reply needs to be interpreted in the context of the sentence. The answer is obvious - only the dependent parents of the insured.

One could interpret other meanings for 'dependent parents' & check for 'exemptions' based on the verdicts given in various cases.
