🔎 What is a 7A Case?

A 7A case is initiated under the Employees’ Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952 when authorities suspect non-compliance by an employer. It usually involves disputes about whether employees have been correctly covered under PF, if contributions are missing, or if delayed payments exist.

📌 Why Does a 7A Notice Happen?

• Failure to deposit PF contributions on time
• Non-enrollment of eligible employees
• Mismatched or incomplete records
• Disputes regarding employee wages or coverage

⚖️ How is a 7A Inquiry Conducted?

The PF authorities summon the employer and conduct an inquiry to verify records, wages, and contribution details. Employers must submit documents such as salary registers, attendance records, and proof of PF deposits. The inquiry may also include employee statements.
