Rebate u/s 80 C on PF

(Querist) 03 July 2009 This query is : Resolved 

Sir,

We are deducting provident fund @ 10% on basic pay of our employees and depositing the same with our share @ 10% in nationalised bank by opening separate accounts of employees under the account name "PF A/c of ....Employee Name....".

our query is

1. can we give rebate to our employees on their 10% PF share u/s 80C ?

2. What is the procedure to recognise the provident fund accounts maintained by the private organisations?

Thanks

S.P. Dhammi

Dear Dhammi,

Such Provident Fund are not recognized by the Commissioner of Income-tax. The employee and employer both contribute towards this fund. The employee's contribution to URPF is not treated as deductible expenditure. Further, such contribution doesnot qualify for deduction under 80 C.
