Our organization always deducts EPF for employees with a salary less than or equal to 15000.
A few days ago, an Enforcement Officer visited our firm and informed us that it is mandatory to pay EPF for any employee who had a UAN number (or EPF deducted) in a previous firm, even if their current salary is above 15000. He mentioned that one of our employees had his EPF deducted 5 years ago in a previous firm, so we are required to deduct his EPF even though his current salary is greater than 15000.
Could you please clarify if this information is accurate? Where in the EPF Act is this requirement stated if it is indeed true?

Dear Ashvan,
As stated in the trail mail, "Do let me know for any further clarification." I need the process flow to be ensured by the Exempted Establishment on the transfer of an Employee from an Unexempted Establishment.
