Hi Anitha,

As per the amendment dated 22/9/1997, both the employee and the employer have to contribute to the PF at 12%. However, the employer has to contribute an extra 1.61%. The breakdown is as follows:

Employee Employer
A/C No. 1 PF 12% 3.67%
A/C No. 2 PF admin a/c 1.10%
A/C No. 10 EPS 8.33%
A/C No. 21 EDLIS a/c 0.50%
A/C No. 22 EDLIS admin a/c 0.01%

For ESI, the employee's contribution is 1.75% of the gross salary, with a ceiling limit of Rs 10,000 gross salary. The employer's contribution is 4.75%, making a total of 6.5%.

    Dear Anita,

    ESI contribution is meant for ensuring and providing medical assistance for the employee and their dependents' health. Neither the employee's nor the employer's contribution to ESI accumulation will be available at any cost. However, your and the employer's ESI contributions would assist at the time of availing the below-mentioned benefits:

    1. Medical Benefit
    2. Disablement Benefit
    3. Maternity Benefit
    4. Sickness Benefit
    5. Dependent Benefit

    Thanks, Vedha

    Hi Anitha,

    ESIC is calculated on gross salary where the employee contribution is 1.75% on gross and the employer's contribution is 4.75% on gross.

    PF is calculated on Basic+DA. The employee contribution is 12%, and the employer contribution is 13.61%. The bifurcation of 13.61% is as follows:
    - 8.33% as pension fund.
    - 3.67% as provident fund.
    - 1.61% comprises PF admin (1.10% calculated on Basic + DA), EDLI (0.5% calculated on Basic + DA), and EDLI admin (0.01%).

    For EDLI, if Basic + DA exceeds 6500, the calculation is done based on 6500 only, and the remaining amount will be entered into the provident fund.

    I hope this clarifies the breakdown of contributions. Let me know if you need further information.

    Hi all,

    This is Alpa. I have some queries regarding PF and ESIC. I have left one company and now want to withdraw my PF amount. I want to know the exact amount of PF and also understand how I would receive that amount if I join a new company.

    Regarding the ESIC amount, I am unsure. Can you provide me with more information on this?

    I am a fresher in the HR field and I am currently studying PGDHRM from Symbiosis University. I am curious if I can secure an HR job in a company with my current studies.

    Please suggest me on the above queries. Thank you.

    Dear Anita,

    First of all, I would like to correct one error in your sentence:
    PF is calculated on Basic, not on CTC. ESI is calculated on Gross Salary.

    Now, let's address your question regarding the employer's contribution for PF and ESI:
    - PF Contribution of Employer: 12% of Basic
    - ESI Contribution of Employer: 4.75% of Gross Salary
