Dear Dr. Chandok,

Thanks for your reply. What are the chances of winning in tribunal? It is clear that EPFO adopt different yard stick for different employers. There are many employers in India, who show 20 to 60% of gross salary ( where gross salary is Rs.5000 to 6500 ) as basic and pay PF on basic only.  EPFO officers happily accept that.

Can they discriminate this way ? 

Pl. send the copy of 7-A orders for clarity of facts.

Dear Dr. Chandok,

Sending scanned copy to you by email. It will be sent by Mr. Vikash, Hyderabad.

We wish to file an application under sec 7B. Which of the following points should be covered ?

(1) many of the employees no more working with us and untraceable. Department cannot give them any benefit so demand should be dropped / reduced.

(2) our existing employees want minimum deduction and they can give it in writing. should we add their representation ?
