Hello Readers, The month of August 2013 saw some
interesting developments in the EPF and Gratuity
space.
Compliance calendar for Aug 13 (Time line for Sep
13)
The EPFO is lately becoming tougher
with defaulting employers for not remitting the
PF contribution. As part of this recent
development, the EPFOs official website
listed the names of top defaulting employers, in
an effort to warn them and has asked the
exempted EPF trusts to send their pending
income tax proposals by November.

We appreciate these moves by the EPFO, as
it is in the positive direction of ensuring
that the employers do not cheat their employees
of their benefits. Also, publishing the list is a
good move that will help to create
awareness among the employees and general
public and dissuade the employers from future
defaults.
Employers Share of EPF Contribution can be
reduced to Rs. 6500/

In two separate judgements, our High
Courts have re-affirmed the rights of employees
with regard to Gratuity settlement, directing
the employers to include travelling allowance
for calculation of Gratuity and pay the employee
with interest for the delayed settlement. These
benchmark judgments we hope would now help
to clear a lot of long pending petitions
and ensure justice, to many petitioners,
across the country.
Delayed payment of Gratuity will attract

This issue covers these developments in detail,
along with other interesting information in
the statutory compliance space. We hope you
enjoy reading this issue and find it
useful.
