sir
one person was working at an office and his provident fund had been duly deducted from the salary slip, however the company has not provided the p.f number at the salary slip, when the employee left the company he asked the employer to provide the p.f number but the company has not turned up , a legal notice has also been sent to the employer and the p.f commissioner but the employee got no reply.my question is
can tne consumer file a complaint before the consumer or state commission and what compensasion can be demanded or any othe suggestion from experts?

you are not a consumer of that company so you cant make consumer complaint.
the appropiate remedy is to go to the pf commisioner the step you have already taken.
even the pf commission will be able to tell you your PF Code and all other requisite info since they maintain proper records. Enquire there.

no can the consumer complaint can be lodged against p.f department for not taking cognizance of complaint against the company as a recent judgement the case of p.f can be lodged at consumer courts
