Depends. Think about it : How many employees call ex-employees of a company (they intend to join) for opinions? Hardly. On the other hand, how many employers call ex-employers for comments (on a candidate they intend to hire)?

Employers calling ex-employers is now a mandatory requirement of all Tier 2 or higher IT companies. My company has an Audit on the Background check process and auditors take any irregularities in the process seriously and raise issues on the same.

Tier 2 IT companies? My small 30 member company does it too

I have a feeling that your friend's company avoided making PF contributions on the first year. That's probably the reason why they want to avoid trouble by not providing an experience letter for that year.

In this case, the only documentary evidence that your friend has, are the bank statements showing the "Salary" deposits. If you can prove that the deposits came from your employer's account, that should be sufficient to prove your friend's innocence.

Deducting PF & not paying it into the Provident Fund accounts managed by the PF commissioner is a criminal offence.

Please take note of the above, and sir(original poster) , this is not to give you ideas to send or complain to the police but to enlighten you that the company would not have deducted PF in this particular case.

Instead of breaking head so much, its better he finds another decent job or try retaining his existing job.

After he has a job, he can go about doing the damage control.

There is no dearth of opportunities in a city like Bengaluru.

Ask your friend to cheer up.

There's always light at the end of the tunnel.
