If an employee is covered by PF Act,he can not opt out of PF.It is a statutory obligation but not contractual one. b.saikumar HR & Labour Law Advisor Navi Mumbai

Hello Kavi;
Coverage under EPF Act is not by choice, it is mandatory. There are only two exceptions, firstly if the salary is beyond the limit prescribed under the Act, and secondly if the employer is exempted since employer has his own PF scheme more beneficial to employees. In all other cases employee has to be covered under the Act.

Dear Vibhakar Ramtirthkar ji,
According to you, if salary of an employee is beyond the limit prescribed under the Act, he can be exempted from EPF.
I have a question to you. Suppose my salary beyond such limit prescribed but I am a member of EPF. Still you will exempt me from EPF?

Dear Korgaonkar;
If you are already member of EPF, question is are you continuing with same employer? If yes then the employer might continue you to remain covered under the EPF but to the extent of maximum salary. You may contribute more, but employer will not contribute anything above the limit of wage.
If you leave that job and join new employer where your salary is more than the limit under the Act, you will be exempt. In such cases employer has different superannuation scheme, because such employees are top layer employees and few in number.
