27 May 2008 An employee is drawing a salary of Rs.6,500/- p.m. and he doesn't want to contribute in the Provident Fund. So therefore is it allowed? If Yes, then what will be the employer's contribution in this case?

29 May 2008 Any organisation having less than 10 employee are not covered under PF Act. But when a organisation is covered under the act then he has to deduct pF contribution as per act irrespective of salary amount.
