No, i think its still 6500/- only. If it increases then we would get some message from PF Department. As such we didnt get any message from them as of now. Thanks, KP

Hi Dalmia, This may clear your doubt. With the aim of widening the base of those eligible for provident fund from the current four crore-odd subscribers, the government is mulling doing away completely with the employee wage ceiling of Rs 7,500 per month. At present, employees with salary of Rs 7,500 are covered under the Employees Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provisions Act. EPFO commissioner A Vishwanathan told ET, “The proposal may come up for discussion in the next board meeting.” The implementation of this proposal may require an amendment to the Employees Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provisions Act. While eligibility for the Employees State Insurance Act is now already set at Rs 10,000 per month from the earlier Rs 7,500 per month, recent amendments to the Payment of Bonus Act has also facilitated a rise in the eligibility limit for bonus payment from Rs 3,500 per month to Rs 10,000 per month.
