2.A contractor having less than 20 employees does not cover it's employees under EPF&MP Act by obtaining separate PF Code.

The responsibility of statutory payment by the principal employer if any one not contributed the principal employer will pay the contribution and they can deduct from the respective contractor bills.

I already informed to you. The principal employer is the total responsibilities of statutory payment. If there is any undue or any payment not paid at the time of inspection the statutory authorities recovered the due from the Principal Employer.
I am understand your second question.

Dear Mr. Xavier,
Thank you for your reply.
my second question is related to PF recovery statement, one of our clients has asked to fill in an annexure (attached). We have been providing all statutory details to our clients on regular monthly basis. However they have asked to provide details as per this format too.
Kindly let me know about this annexure as well.
Thank you in advance.

I think your client is required the consolidated PF contribution statement for contractors . I don't know whether you are remitted or not . If you have details you may discussed with your management and forward.

we do maintain a PF register which captures all the data mentioned in the annexure & have been providing the same on monthly basis to the client. Although we are providing the PF register & challans on monthly basis they have asked to provide & fill up another annexure.

It is additional job for you apart from the regular . I will give the small suggestion for you further report you may highlighted the contract workers in the statement therefore they can easily identified the highlighted name is under the contract roll. According their requirement all the details available in your statement further formulation they can do directly from their side.
OK
