A wage settlement was under negotiation with union from 1.4.2021.
The settlement was signed on 1 June 2022.
The company has paid the arrear salary for its workers effective from 1.4.2021 to 31.05.2022 and PF was deducted and remitted to EPFO.
Now the PF authorities are demanding the penalty and interest towards payment of arrears effective from 1.4.2021.
Can PF authorities demand penalty & interest on arrear payments?
