1. In General, employees drawing more then Rs. 6500 per month are excluded, but employer can include them by applying to PF commissioner. These employees can be counted as normal employees. I know companies are deducting PF though none of their employees salary < Rs. 50K PM.
2. The PF ACT is applicable only when the # of employees are at least 20.
3. PF continues to apply though the number of employees are less then 20 at any point of time after registered with PF ACT.
in this case
a. If your company registered under PF earlier with 20 employees, then the liability would be Rs. 60K (12% on 5 L) + 1.67% on 5L (approx.) for administrative charges, though only 8 employees.
b. If Not registered, NO LIABILITY.
