If you're still working after the age of 60, your employer can continue to deduct Provident Fund (PF) contributions from your salary. However, you cannot contribute to the pension fund after 58. You have the option to claim your pension or defer it until age 60, which may result in a higher pension amount. It's recommended to file your pension claim form.

Sir, PF is deducted until an employee is in service. No age limit. But for the pension fund, you can't contribute after 58 years of age. You must claim pension or can defer it until 60 years of age, for which you get a 4% to 8% increased pension.
In your case, you must file a pension claim form. Regarding the employer's PF contribution, the full amount is deposited into PF Account.
