Hi All,
PF authorities has no statutory power to verify such things. Recent judgments confirms on contractor non-compliance's can't be made responsibility of principal employer if the contractor has allotted separate PF code.
Earlier also PF department issues such circulars without having statutory powers and recall after some court judgments. Through these type of circulars department enforcing principal employer to do their job like TDS.
