Dear Mr. Prasadu,
I am sorry, Mr. Kiran is correct regarding the benefit period. When I replied quickly, I made a mistake.
Gratuity is payable if an employee completes 5 years of continuous service. Continuous service includes eligible leaves. For each year of service, the employee will receive 15 days of BASIC+DA. The payment is calculated based on 26 working days, i.e., (BASIC+DA)/26*15.
PF is calculated based on BASIC + DA. It is deducted from the employee's monthly salary (Basic+DA) at a minimum of 10% (some private PF funds offer more than 10%). This amount will be deducted from the employee's salary, and they will receive the net of PF as their salary. The employer will also contribute the same percentage towards the employee's PF contribution. Upon retirement, the employee will receive both the employee and employer contributions with interest up to the date. Early withdrawal is also possible. For more details, refer to the PF Act.
Out of the employer's contribution, 8.33% will be allocated to the EPF pension.

PF is calculated based on BASIC + DA. It is deducted from the employee's monthly salary (Basic+DA) at a minimum of 10% (some private PF funds offer more than 10%). This deduction will be taken from the employee's salary, and they will receive the net of PF only as salary. The employer will contribute the same percentage towards the employee's PF. Upon retirement, the employee will receive both the employee and employer contributions with interest accrued to date (early withdrawal is also possible).
For more details, refer to the PF ACT.
Out of the employer's contribution, 8.33% will go towards the EPF pension.
Dear VGKNAIR,
I WISH TO EXPLAIN FEW POINTS REGARDING THE EMPLOYEE'S PROVIDENT FUND. THE COVERAGE OF EPF IS STATUTORILY APPLICABLE WHEN THE FIRM HAS 20 EMPLOYEES RECEIVING SALARIES. THE CONTRIBUTION PERCENTAGE IS 12% OF THE SALARY/WAGES, NOT 10%.
FOR UNITS WITH LESS THAN 20 EMPLOYEES WHO CHOOSE TO VOLUNTARILY COVER UNDER THE EPF & MP ACT SECTION 1(4), THE CONTRIBUTION PERCENTAGE IS 10%.
REGARDING WITHDRAWALS, EMPLOYEES WHO LEAVE BEFORE COMPLETING 10 YEARS OF PF SERVICE CAN WITHDRAW THE FULL AMOUNT IN A/C.1 AND A/C.10, RECEIVING INTEREST ONLY ON PF ACCUMULATION (15.67%).
EMPLOYEES WITH 10 YEARS OF SERVICE IN PF/EPS CAN WITHDRAW THE EPF AMOUNT AND ARE ELIGIBLE FOR PENSION AFTER TURNING 58, OR CAN OPT FOR REDUCED PENSION AT AGE 50 WITH A 4% REDUCTION PER YEAR.
I HOPE THIS INFORMATION IS HELPFUL FOR YOU AND OTHERS SEEKING CLARITY.

Dear Prasad,
For ESIC, it is applicable until your gross salary does not exceed INR 15,000 and the monthly deductions would be 1.75% (employee contribution) and 4.75% (employer contribution).
For example, if my salary is INR 15,000 gross, I am entitled to ESIC. Even if you receive a salary hike in May, your ESIC deductions will continue until September, as ESIC returns are processed half-yearly.
Thank you.

Dear Mr. Kiran,
Thank you for providing more details regarding PF. I would like to clarify that the EPF contribution has been increased from 8.33% to 10%, and for those who were contributing 10%, it has been raised to 12%. I mentioned this briefly in my previous reply.
Upon reviewing your response, I visited the EPF website where they clearly outline the details as follows (ref epfindia.nic.in IN POINT NO 24):
24) What is the voluntary rate of Provident Fund contribution by the member?
According to the Act, the member must contribute at the rate of 10% or 12% of their basic pay, D.A., and retaining allowance if any. If the member wishes to contribute more voluntarily, they can do so at any rate up to 100% of basic and D.A. However, the employer is not obligated to match the enhanced rate.

If any candidate is already working in an organization as a daily-rated employee through a service provider and is later observed by the same organization as a permanent employee, what happens to his balance leave with the service provider during that period for which he receives salary through the service provider?

Dear Rajesh Kanna,
After completion of 58 years of age, the contribution of 8.33% towards the pension scheme stops, and that same contribution should be diverted to the employer's contribution. This means the employer's contribution should be at 12% where 3.67% is shown.
