Hi Amit, If the service is less than 6 months the pension fund is non refundable. So we have to fill only 10C. Rgds/Jitender

Dear Jitendra,

Thanks a lot for the information.

Dear Dhameja,

The point to be clarified is that if any employee quits his/her organization, then he/she will only have to fill up Form 10c when it comes to the withdrawal of PF. At such times, the resigned employee will only be getting 15.67% of PF, i.e., 12% of the employee's PF fund and 3.67% of the employer's PF fund, and will not be getting the remaining 8.33% of the pension fund. So Form 19 is not required to be submitted since it is related to the pension fund. I hope it is clear now.

Regards,

Dear Friend,

Yes, there is a ceiling limit of 6500 on the basic salary. According to my knowledge, if the employee's basic salary is Rs. 16,000, then the contributions are as follows:

- Employee contribution is 16,000 * 12% = Rs. 1,920.00
- The Employer contribution (12%) is divided into 2 parts:
- 8.33% of basic salary (8.33% * 16,000 = Rs. 1,332) goes to the Pension Fund.
- 3.67% of 6500 (Rs. 238) goes to the P.F.

I'M ALSO VERY CONFUSED ABOUT THIS. IF I'M WRONG, PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

Hi All,

Let me just write stepwise to clear the doubts.

Rule for deduction of PF: An employee with a basic salary less than 6500/- and working for a company with more than 20 employees must have PF deductions. The Employee Contribution is 12%, and the Employer contribution is 13.61% (8.33% for the pension fund, 3.67% goes to PF, and 1.61% for admin charges) from the basic salary.

An employee with a basic salary more than 6500 has the option to opt for or opt out of PF. If the employee chooses PF deduction, it can be calculated on the basic salary of 6500 as fixed or can be calculated based on the total basic salary, subject to the company policy.

Hi all,

Actually, when I read my previous reply, it looked a little confusing. So, I am presenting it in a simpler way:

PF CONTRIBUTION
- From Employee: 12%
- From Employer: 12%

ESI CONTRIBUTION
- From Employee: 1.75%
- From Employer: 4.75%
