Practical issue in pf act

Dear Professionals

i have one practical doubt in P.F.

 

In case of labour contract, contractor will send details of wages paid (of person employed by him) to the principal employer (or say service receiver) within seven day of the end of the month, and also it is responsibility of the principal employer to deposit the PF and submit the return.

 

But practically i have seen contractor himself register under PF act, deposit the PF dues (in respect of labour provided by him) and also submit the return for the same.

 

So is there any department notification or any thing else in this regard?

 

Thank you in anticipation.
