after your application inspection is deputed and within 7 days of inspection establishment will get code number, after getting code no, employer is authorized to deduct the employees contribution from the effective date ( as mentioned in code no allotment letter) and pay the contribution of employee + employer, a 30 time time is offered usually by the PF office to pay the arrears.
