Addressing PF Deduction Issue: Non-Deposited Funds & Legal Implications - CiteHR

I joined a newly launched Hindi newspaper on 15th July in Nokia. The PF amount is deducted from my salary (both sides) but not deposited, as confirmed by the department through RTI. The same issue occurred with TDS. Please suggest what to do.

If PF is deducted and not deposited in the PF account, then under Section 14B and 7Q, there will be penalties and interest charged by the PF commissioner. Moreover, your organization could potentially face permanent closure.
