April 2020 and May 2020 being Covid lock down periods, the delay in payment of contributions were permitted. Therefore, the delayed payment should not attract interest u/s 7Q and damages u/s 14B of the EPF and MP Act.

Wage month August 2022 does not qualify for any special treatment and you should pay both interest as well as damages if you have defaulted payment in time.
