Hi Sathish,
ESI is contributed from both the sides Employee as well as Employer.
It is been calculated on the basis of Gross salary per month and the maximum ceiling is 10000 Rs./Month.
The contribution from both the sides is as below-
Employee Side- 1.75% of gross/month
So if gross of an employee is 8000/month then
ESI contribution would be 8000*1.75% = 140 Rupees
Employer side- 4.75% of gross/month
ESI contribution would be 8000* 4.75% = 380 Rupees.
Whereas, PF is also been paid from both the sides.. Both the employer as well as employee is required to pay the 12% of basic salary..
Out of this 12% of employer's contribution 8.33% goes to Pension fund whereas rest 3.67% goes to the PF Fund itself..

SALARY FOR THE MONTH RS.6500
EMPLOYEE CONTRIBUTION(TO BE DEDUCTED FROM SALARY)
6500 X 12% = 780
EMPLOYER'S CONTRIBUTION (NOT TO BE DEDUCTED FROM SALARY)
FAMILY PENSION SCHEME = 6500 X8.33% = 541
EMPLOYEES PROVIDENT FUND (BALANCE OF THE 12%AMOUNT)=

Hi All,
As per my knowledge PF is calculated on Basic salary and not gross salary. It is compulsory for employees earning Basic salary below Rs. 6500 and optional for employees havinf Basic salary over Rs. 6,500. Though we should insist all the employees to opt for PF.
And ESI is calculated on Gross salary. Employee earning below Rs. 10000/- per month are covered under it.
Please correct me if i am wrong.
Regards,
Reena

Dear reena,
You are right. but when the option for those drawing more than 6500 for pf, we should get a request letter from the employee for not to deduct pf since they are drawing more than Rs.6500
Thanks
