My basic salary + DA = 70,000. From April 2003 to March 2011, my institute was deducting 12% of 70,000, and the same amount was contributed by the employer. Later, they reduced their contribution to a fixed amount of 1,000, while ours continued at 12%. We lodged a complaint about this to the PF commissioner, and he stated that Section 12 of the EPF and MP Act is violated by the institute, emphasizing that the total quantum of the salary cannot be reduced. The employer was ordered to repay it at the rate of 12%. However, the employer intends to pursue the matter in the High Court.
Please address the following questions:
1. Will the employer succeed in court?
2. Is the response from the PF commissioner accurate?
3. Once the employer has reinstated their original contribution, can they subsequently reduce it without prior notification to the employees?
Your assistance in providing clarification on these matters would be greatly appreciated.
