We have 35 employees in our company, out of which 18 individuals are permanent, and the rest are temporarily appointed.
Please inform me whether PF should be paid for all employees or only for the permanent ones.
Please help me.

Your company will be covered under the Provident Fund Act. It is immaterial whether employees are temporary. On any day preceding 12 months, if your company engages 20 or more employees, PF will be applicable.
Temporary employees engaged in work by the company should be considered as employees. Please refer to the definition of an employee under the PF Act.

Dear,
Once the organization is covered under PF/ESI acts, all the people, i.e., Permanent, Temporary, Casual, Contract, etc., except Apprentices, are to be covered under this act and contributions are to be paid. A separate rule applies to employees whose Basic + DoA + VDA is more than Rs. 6500/- per month with respect to PF, and those employees whose monthly wages are over Rs. 10,000/- are exempted under ESI.
Even if the contractor is not remitting the PF amount, as a principal employer, we are responsible for paying the contribution and deducting that amount from the bill payable to the contractor.
With best regards,

Once the organization is covered under PF/ESI acts, all the people, i.e., Permanent, Temporary, Casual, Contract, etc., are included. It is not necessary to wait until there are 20 employees; it is better to pay before reaching 20 employees. There are some exemptions for temporary employees, especially during the training period.

Dear Sir,
Unless the figure of 20 is reached, PF is not mandatory for a company. However, even if the figure is 20 and there are more than 5 persons with a basic salary above 10000, what happens? Please guide.
