This discussion addresses a scenario where an employee's salary is reduced from £30,000 to £12,000, with the employee accepting the change. The core question is how this impacts the Provident Fund (PF) contributions for both the employer and employee. The consensus is that PF contributions can indeed be recalculated based on the new, lower salary of £12,000.
A situation comes where an employer is reducing salary of an employee from 30000/- to 12000/-, and the employee accepts the same. What will be the PF liability for employer? and also by employee? As he and employer was contributing 12% of 15000 till last month and now whether the same can be 12%(10%) of 12,000?
