Good afternoon Everyone !
I am Shylaja. I need some info about Provident Funds. Please let me know the basic difference between PF, PPF & EPF. I understand PF component includes contribution from the employee & the employer. Can the Employer's share by reflected / included in the CTC of an employee? If so how?

The difference is as follows
GPF - General Provident Fund which is for the Government Employees
PPF - Individuals can save to a maximum of Rs.60000/- in a year in the account. Account can be maintained in a Post Office.
EPF - Employees Provident Fund for Private sector where 12% of Employees share and 12 % of Employer's share of Basic Salary + DA is deducted and remitted to PF Authorities.
