Dear Sir,
I do not agree with the later part i.e. voluntary contribution to one's PF needs consent of the concerned area PF commissioner. When I was in service, I have many times one time savings in my PF account voluntarily to save income tax. When the ceiling of Rs.1 lakh was reached, it was stopped. The concerned Area PF commissioner never intervened. I may make it clear here that our PF was maintained by a Trust and not by the PF office. But we were following the same rules. I think this needs further discussion and valuable inputs by retired PF officers who are now on the citehr.

Dear Mr. Shyam Agarwal
Regarding the enhancement and reduction of Voluntary Higher contribution I have earlier checked up with the local PF AC, who told that reduction of the enhanced V. higher contribution needs the prior consent of their department. They told that they keep track of the higher contribution members separately and that it was not like a SB account to put money as and when desired at their will. In fact as per procedure the V. higher contributing member has to submit a declaration to the PF Office at the first time, which is not being insisted nowadays.
Regarding pension fund it is the Management's contribution and if it contributes for salary more than Rs.6500/= the excess contribution beyond Rs.6500/= (i.e.,Rs.541/=) is transferred to PF account of the member.
