Practical Guide to Employees' Provident Funds (Act, Rules and Schemes)

The new edition contains more case laws since there have been large number of cases by the High Courts. This will add to the utility of the book. With large number of appeals, before the EPF Appellate Tribunals and higher Courts, the book remains updated with the latest case laws and related developments in the employees’ provident fund 1aws, notifications and amendments. In earlier editions of this book, the author has incorporated important notifications and circulars by the EPFO which have to be discontinued in this edition because there is hardly any day when one circular, instruction or notification is not issued. Keeping in view the constraint the readers can visit www.labourlawreporter.com.
