Hi Anita,

Employees Provident Fund covers three schemes with contributions of 12% from employees and 13.61% from the employer's side:
1. Family Pension Scheme: 8.33%
2. Provident Fund: 3.67%
3. Link Insurance Scheme: 0.5%
4. Administrative Expenses paid by the employer: 1.61%

Employees' contributions are deducted from Basic + DA. Organizations with 20 or more employees are covered under the scheme. The minimum salary required is Rs. 6500 per month.

ESI deductions include 1.75% from employees and 4.75% from the employer. The calculation is based on Basic + DA, and employees earning Rs. 50 per day are eligible for coverage.

Dear Ms. Anitha,

PF will be calculated in Basic + DA. Employee contribution is 12%, and employer contribution is 12%. Apart from this, the employer should pay the administrative charges and EDLI (Employees' Deposit Linked Insurance) charges.

For ESI, the employee contribution is 1.75% of the Gross Amount, and the employer contribution is 4.75%, making it a total of 6.5%.

Hope you now have a better understanding of this.

Hi Saravanan,

Please do correct me if I am wrong. The calculation of EPF is as follows:
- Employer contribution: 12%
- Employee contribution: 12%
- Family Pension Scheme: 8.33%
- PF Scheme: 3.67%
- Link Insurance Scheme: 0.5%
Total: 12%

Additionally, the administrative expenses of 1.61% are paid by the Employer.

Thank you.

Dear Anita,

PF DEDUCTION:
EMPLOYEE = 12% (OF BASIC SALARY)
EMPLOYER = 12% (OF BASIC SALARY) + ADMIN CHARGES = 1.61% (OF BASIC SALARY)

ESI DEDUCTION:
EMPLOYEE = 1.75% (OF GROSS SALARY)
EMPLOYER = 4.75% (OF GROSS SALARY)

Hi Seniors,

Thank you very much for your information. I am now very clear on this part.

Another question I have is, can PF be withdrawn at the end of service? What about ESI? Please assist me with this.
