Dear Friends,

Please help me figure out the details of PF calculation. If the employee is earning more than Rs. 6500, it is 12% employee contribution + 12% employer contribution + 1% admin charge = 25% of basic salary + stipend + arrears. If the employee is earning less than Rs. 6500, the employer pays 12%, but the employee is not obligated to pay. Is this correct? How much is deducted from the employee's salary?

Please help!

Dear Abhipsa,

Please find PF calculations with Challan details as placed below:

Account 1 (PF) -
- Employee Share: 12%
- Employer Share towards PF: 3.67% + excess of Rs. 541

Account 2 (Admin Charges for PF) -
- Employee Share: NIL
- Employer Share: 1.10%

Account 10 (Pension Fund) -
- Employee Share: NIL
- Employer Share: 8.33% subject to limit Rs. 541

Account 21 (Insurance Fund) -
- Employee Share: NIL
- Employer Share: 0.5%

Account 22 (Admin Charges for Insurance Fund) -
- Employee Share: NIL
- Employer Share: 0.01%

If the salary of the employee is more than Rs. 6500, then the PF contribution payable by the employer is only limited to Rs. 6500 (or the employer may wish to pay more) as per Para 26A(2) of the PF Scheme.

Dear Abhipsa,

A few points to add with Mr. Akhil:

- Salary means Basic + DA.
- An employee can contribute more than 12% of their salary in PF, which is known as Voluntary PF contribution.
- In the case of an Exempted PF Trust, the amount of the employer's share in A/C No.2 will be at 0.18%.

Thanks & Regards,

Dear friends, how can i check my EPF Balance in online kindly help me regards P.Ramarajan

I have a query regarding PF calculation and PF deduction. How can I get it resolved? I have been working since 1983 and took VRS in 2004. The company has not made any provision for a pension. How can I get my pension benefits? Also, PF is deducted only on the basic salary, excluding dearness allowances. Can they do so? The company is registered under the Companies Act, and the PF Act is applicable from 1982.
