Dear Sweekriti ji,
You have contributed for PF @ Rs. 780/- p.m. for total 17 months.
Your employer has contributed equal amount of Rs. 780/- p.m. for total 17 months, out of which PF contribution is Rs. 239/- p.m. and remaining Rs. 541/- is in pension account.
Your share towards PF for 17 months @ Rs. 780/- is Rs. 13260/-
Your employer share towards PF for 17 months @ Rs. 239/- is Rs. 4063/-.
Your total share towards PF for 17 months is Rs. 17323/- with out interest. Interest rate keep on changing and is as under:
1996 to 2000 : 12%
2000 to 2001 : 11%
2001 to 2005 : 9.5%
2005 to 2010 : 8.5%
2010 to 2011 : 9.5%
2011 to 2012 : 8.25%
Compound Interest is calculated on monthly contribution basis.
Your employer has contributed towards pension @ Rs. 541/- for total 17 months comes to Rs. 9197/-. You can withdraw your pension or take scheme certificate. No interest is payable on withdrawal and this withdrawal is not the withdrawal of your accumulation amount in scheme. The withdrawal value is decided on the basis of proportion of PS wages at the time of exit, as given in Table D under paragraph 14 of the scheme.
You worked for 17 months. That means your completed year service is one year. In this case, your withdrawal i.e. return of contribution, will be 6500 x 1.02 = 6630. (1.2 is a proportion of PS wages at exit on 1 year completed service as given in Table D of the scheme).

Hello Sweekriti,
if your PF deduction is Rs.780 per month then your basic pay + DA = should be Rs. 6500.
as per PF rule, Employee contribution is 12 % of your Basic Pay + DA. (which should not exceed 6500) for example if your BASIC and DA is 7500 then employer can deduct the PF on 6500 only that will be fixed. and if your BASIC + DA is 6000 then it will be Rs. 720/-
(Typically 12% of the Basic, DA, and cash value of food allowances)
