Hi,
I would like to know about salary/PF calculations.
How do we need to calculate salary? Is it 26 days per month, 31 days per month, or should we consider an average of 30 days? What about February?
If an employee is on leave, the take-home pay will vary based on the number of days when calculating the salary.
I request you to share your knowledge.
I work for an IT company with a turnover of 60+.
Thanks in advance.

PF is calculated on the actual salary (basic + DA only) paid to the employees. If you have paid salary for 21 days only (the rest of the days the employee was on leave without pay), then that salary will qualify for PF deduction and contribution. If you have paid salary for 30 days, that will be the salary for PF. If you pay salary for 28/29 days in the month of February, then you need to take that reduced salary for PF as well.

Dear Sritha, Salary may be calculated on a daily basis, weekly basis, fortnightly basis or monthly basis whereas PF returns are to be filed on monthly basis only. Regards, Madhu.T.K

Hi sritha, here is no hard and fast rule for calculation salary at current month days or 26. but auditors object to calculate on 26 as weekly rest days are paid. jav

PF towards salary has to be calculated in 30 days, i.e., 365 days / 12 months = 30.416 rounded to 30 days per month. However, in the case of Ms. Sritha, if she calculates in 26 days (avoiding weekly off days), there will be a violation of labor rule, which states that labor should attain a weekly off. So, all the calculations of EPF and the ESI have to be done in a 30-day month manner.

12% equal contribution towards PF from both employer and employee. PF & Superannuation contribution put together should not exceed 27% of the total contribution towards the pension. In PF, the employer has the flexibility to contribute at 12% of the employee's basic or Rs. 6500 per employee. Now, out of the employer's PF contribution, 8.33% of basic/Rs. 6500 max is segregated and credited to the pension fund. Due to this fact, depending upon the way the PF fund is managed, company-owned/third party, the encashment amount at the time of separation will vary.
