While employees may choose to contribute less towards EPF, thereby increasing their take-home salary, he clarified key limitations of the proposal: - Employees may opt to **reduce their own contributions** above the mandatory threshold to increase take-home pay. - Such a decision does *not* automatically give employees the right to unilaterally direct their employers to reduce provident fund deductions. ![](https://ksandk.com/wp-content/uploads/Website-PR-update-2-20.png) ## Balancing Flexibility and Compliance His observations highlight the importance of understanding both the objective of the proposed reform and the **legal framework** governing employer and employee obligations under the EPF scheme. The proposal seeks to balance greater financial flexibility for employees with continued compliance under India’s social security laws. ## Read the Full Article Read the full *News18* article to learn more about the proposed EPF reforms and their implications for employers and employees: [https://www.news18.com/business/savings-and-investments/epf-scheme-2026-after-rs-1800-mandatory-cap-should-you-reduce-pf-contributions-to-increase-take-home-salary-ws-l-10188183.html](https://www.news18.com/business/savings-and-investments/epf-scheme-2026-after-rs-1800-mandatory-cap-should-you-reduce-pf-contributions-to-increase-take-home-salary-ws-l-10188183.html) *Last Updated on 6 July, 2026* --- ## Office Locations - [New Delhi](https://ksandk.com/locations/top-corporate-law-firm-in-delhi/) (HQ): +91-11-41318190 | info@ksandk.com - [Mumbai](https://ksandk.com/locations/top-corporate-law-firm-in-mumbai/): 3 offices (Nariman Point, Lower Parel, Andheri) | mumbai@ksandk.com - [Bangalore](https://ksandk.com/locations/top-corporate-law-firm-in-bangalore/): bangalore@ksandk.com - [Chennai](https://ksandk.com/locations/chennai/): chennai@ksandk.com - [Hyderabad](https://ksandk.com/locations/hyderabad/): hyderabad@ksandk.com - [Pune](https://ksandk.com/locations/pune/): pune@ksandk.com - [Kochi](https://ksandk.com/locations/kochi/): kochi@ksandk.com ## Contact - [Contact Page](https://ksandk.com/contact-us/) - General: info@ksandk.com | +91-11-41318190 - WhatsApp: +91-7428567444 - [Privacy Statement](https://ksandk.com/privacy-statement/) - [Terms of Use](https://ksandk.com/terms-of-use/)
