PF transfer rejection under requirement of sanction document under 26(6)
Dear Sir
I was working with a company and joined that company on April 2013 and left on May 2014. The company was deducting pf @ 12 % on my basic salary of 98625/pm that is rs 11831 and contributing the same as 531 in EPS and remaining goes to EPF. The epfo was crediting my interest every year and did not raise any question till March 2022. The past company has been closed now and under NCLT.
I did not join any other company in between and last year 2021 , I joined other company. Now in 2022 I requested to transfer my accumulated pf funds in the new pf account number associated with the present employer.
The pf department rejected my pf transfer and sent a letter stating that I should furnish a sanction letter for deduction of EPF at higher wages from the past employer.
Can epfo raise or demand this sanction after 8 years at the time of transfer. If yes than Why the EPFO was accepting regularly the contribution from April 2013 to May 2014 without any notice to me or my past employer.
They are saying that they will reverse the interest paid on higher salary than 6500/.
Please advise what is the outcome and course of action and solution.
Is it possible that epfo reverse the interest on my past contribution.?
