I have a small construction firm. I have not been doing any work for the last year. There is only one active employee showing in my members' dashboard, which is a mistake because there is actually no employee. If I remove him from the system, there will be no employee at all. What will be the consequence? I have been paying administrative charges regularly every month, but I have not made any PF submissions for a year.

Having any employee in the dashboard means the salary is paid, and the department will initiate payment of contributions. The establishment cannot be treated as non-functional with a single employee. Also, if there is any employee, then ECR is mandatory, and the minimum admin charge is 500/-. In the case of NIL employees, the admin charges would be 75/-.
