Default Vpf

Dear Bala
12% is employee share towards EPF and 12% is employer share out of which 8.33% goes to pension and rest is provident fund.now u can pay max 12% as VPF max .and min is as per your choice ,employer will only pay 12%.so vpf and epf can be upto 24%.
tks

Hi Bala,

Voluntary PF is over & above the statutory PF of 12%. There is no limit for VPF. An employee can contribute as much as he/she may wish, earlier there was a cap on this. Employee is not required to pay any contribution towards VPF.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Atishai

Correction...

"Voluntary PF is over & above the statutory PF of 12%. There is no limit for VPF. An employee can contribute as much as he/she may wish, earlier there was a cap on this. Employer is not required to pay any contribution towards VPF"

Apologies’...
