Dear Sharma,
Once an employee is covered under the PF Act of 1952, he will continue to be so even if his salary exceeds Rs. 15,000, the present wage ceiling under the Act. This is provided that once covered, the employee will continue to be covered even though his wages exceed Rs. 15,000 per month.
The Supreme Court, in the matter of Marathwada Gramin Bank Karamchari Sanghatana Vs. Management of Bank [2011 LLR 1130], held that the employer need not pay provident fund contributions higher than the prescribed limit under the Act and Scheme, which is now Rs. 15,000.
Thank you.

There are multiple conditions applicable.
1. If your company is not covered under PF, you are not liable to deduct or pay PF for this employee.
2. If your company is under PF, then if the employee has an existing PF account at the time of joining your employment, you need to cover him under the PF scheme irrespective of what salary he has joined at.
