In case of leave without pay in the probation period, the amount of wages we deduct is as per the number of days and gross salary.
My question is, shall we also deduct the PF amount? What does the law say? What are the practices?
For example, if a worker has a basic salary of Rs. 6207, then the PF deduction will be Rs. 745. But if the worker is present for only 23 days, should the deduction still be Rs. 745, or should it be adjusted according to changes in the basic salary?

PF deduction or ESI deductions are always on "WAGES EARNED." To answer your specific query, you need to deduct on 23 days' wages earned. If you are calculating on a 30-day basis, then he would have earned wages of Rs 4758.70, and 12% of this would be Rs 571.04.
