I am glad this has come up for discussion. My organisation is struggling with a PF audit that is not ending. They found no irregularities when they checked last 5 years and so they have asked for last 10 years - almost as if they want to find problems! And they have found one - our mistake was that we did not know that we are responsible to check for pf contributions of outsourced staff as well - if the contractor is not paying pf, then we have to. we were supposed to check that the contractor is doing it. so we are busy trying to sort that out. i guess we will learn somethings the hard way - every time a conscientious auditor comes our way!!!

I agree You need to invoke the statute of limitation Your lawyer will be able to take care of that. But with the company closed (and I assume dissolved), whom is the case filed against ?

Hi all,
Above info is very informative.
EPFO is after me to inspect records from 01-04-2004 onwards, whereas I possess records for the last 4-5 yrs only. I am unable to find any notification as suggested by other knowledgeable members above, regarding 5 yrs cutoff.
Could any of you kindly provide link of any such notification.
Thanks in advance.

Dear Dr. Chandokak,
While surfing net, I could get your contact as an expert in law relating to employees and having expert knowledge on Provident Fund Matters.
Is it possible for you to throw some light in relation to summoning of records by PF Authorities under Section 7A. Records beyond how many years can be denied by the employer.
