Management is absolutely right. As per EPFO Act and rule maximum contribution will be on 15,000/-. Management voluntarily depositing more. Irrespective of PF Gross ( Basic ,DA, Other allowances regularly paid other than HRA etc. ) - management can restrict the contribution up to 15,000/- per month i.e 18,00/- per month contribution.

Rs.15000/- is the statutory ceiling for PF deduction. Hence you can go ahead with restructuring salary.

At the same time, Section-12 of the PF Act says Employer should not reduce the wages, for the purpose of decreasing employer contribution towards PF. Hence, it is advisable, before going ahead with restructuring the salaries/wages, please check with PF office of your area
