Byju’s Courts Trouble With EPFO Over Delay in PF Payments

News 18  

Byju’s has delayed provident fund payments of employees for almost all months starting October last year, in what is a violation of the PF Act, opening itself up to action from the Employee Provident Fund Organisation. Byju’s, which is India’s most-valued startup, has been making PF contributions with a lag of almost three to four months, according to data sourced from EPFO by Moneycontrol. The company expedited PF payment contributions after Moneycontrol reported last week that employees’ PF passbooks were not showing contributions from November last year, even though employees’ salary slips showed PF contribution entries. The probable PF action could add to the long list of headaches for Byju’s and its founder Byju Raveendran, who are currently dealing with a number of issues, including auditor and board member resignations.
