Hello everyone,

My company just deducted employer contribution amount from my salary. This month i got promoted my company just deducted pf employer contribution from my salary. But in my previous salary it wasn’t deducted.When I asked they said it’s the rule, previous salary it was a mistake. I was like you guys sending me mistake money for 1 year? . I share the pf contribution regulation. They said it’s rule ,it’s applicable for everyone. I just checked my pf account they have added my initial two month pf balance.

Help me to defend myself. I have a fear if said they might took some strong step, might be fired me. I don’t have other jobs.

When company tells you a number and calls it CTC then Employer PF is also included in it and hence they deduct that as well.

If the company tells you a number and calls it Gross Salary then ideally they will not deduct the Employer PF.

A screenshot of the salary breakup provided by the company would be helpful to give you more insight

Just to be sure – Is it saying as follows?
Gross Salary
Employer PF
Insurance
CTC (total)
