Hi,
I am working as a lecturer in an Aided college in Mumbai.My Salary comes from Govt.Of Maharashtra. My college cut P.F. amount from my salary @10% on basic from April 1998.But they did not open G.P.f. account on time till 2004 for the reasons best known to them.They did not tell me about it except that my P.F. is with college and Govt.did not accept it.So they asked me to fill E.P.F. scheme 1995 form. and send my P.F. there by depositing the excess amount as per E.P.F. norm.(ie 12% on Basic+DA)from day one of my service without any actual deduction of excess amount (than 10%) from my salary.My queries are :
1)If the salary comes from Govt.of Maharashtra,Can the college cut P.F. from salary without depositing it in G.P.f.?
2)Can college claim salary from Govt. and cut and deposit P.f. in E.P.F. which is meant for private sector only?
3)How to deal with this problem legally?

You have to confirm with the provident fund office about the deposit of money.After clarification send a letter to the management for details.
