Regional Provident Fund Vs Vivekananda Vidyamandir And Others (Supreme Court of India)
The Supreme Court’s (SC) ruling on Provident Fund on Thursday (28 February, 2019) states that employers can’t segregate special allowances from basic salary. It has to be included for PF deductions under the Employees’ Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952, said a bench of Justices Arun Mishra and Naveen Sinha.

for example, currently my company pays 25000/month as basic pay & another 25000/month as allowances. current Employer’s PF contribution is 12% of 25000= 3000 and same as mine contribution

Is this judgement applicable for employees earning more than 15000 and base wages?
