Dear Members,

Is it fine if an employer keeps the same PF deduction for all the members (except trainees) e.g. 15,000*12% = 1800? Or should it be based on the basic salary, which varies from employee to employee?

Please advise on an urgent basis.

Thanks, Nikita

Hi Nikita, You can calculate it on the ceiling rate of 15000. that will do. or can also deduct on actual wage (Basic+DA) if it is more than the ceiling that is 15000. Regards Pijush

Dear Mr. Pijush,

Many thanks for your answer. I understood that the employer can maintain the same PF deduction for all employees (Rs. 1800) irrespective of the Basic+DA salary. As we are new to PF, I have another query regarding the same.

If the employer deducts PF as a part of CTC, then the contribution should be 13.61% of 15,000, which equals 2042 (8.33% - Pension, 3.67% - PF, admin charges - 1.10, EDLI - 0.5%, Admin charges - 0.01%). Is this correct?

Please assist.

Thanks,
Nikita

Hi Nikita,

That's right. Things are the same; only the ceiling wage is increased by this new amendment. The employer's contribution would be 13.61% of the wage, but you need to deduct only 12% from any employee's wage.

For instance:
- Basic + DA = 12000
- Employee contribution = 1440 (12%)
- Employer contribution = 1633 (13.61%)

Hope this information helps. For more clarification, please post your query.

Dear Sir,

I am very thankful for such important information. Now, I wish to clear my doubt about employees who are drawing a salary less than Rs. 15,000. For example, if an employee's salary is Rs. 10,000, what will be their basic pay in that case?

Hello, can anyone help me as I am new to all these amendments? The employees whose PF was deducted earlier at 780 as a minimum, now their PF would be deducted as 1800 on 15000 at 12%. Please help. I am not clear with the amendment. Additionally, I read that 12 months have been replaced with 60 months in the new law. What does that mean??
