Hi Ajit PF is 12% on the Basic & not 12.5%. As of now there is no amendment 12% on the gross pay. But PF is calculated on Basic, DA, and other allowances too except HRA

Hi Ajit
PF Contribution Rate for Employee & Employeer is 12 % only
Except HRA - Basic/DA/other Allowance should be taken for 12%
if above said elements above Rs.6500 ie if some getting basic/da/other allowance more than Rs.6500/- We can seal the PF Wage as Rs.6500 - (6500 * 12% Rs.780/-) Rs. 780 as PF Deduction,
Once Basic,DA, other allownace is less than Rs.6500 we should not seal and contribution rate should be 12%
There is no limit for start PF. From 1st day joining PF to should be take for account.

No. Once the employee is covered under EPF even if there is any hike is wages which exceeds 6500/- contributions are mandatory. In this case if both are willing contributions shall be 12% on basic, HRA & other allowances or else it shall be restricted to 6500/-

Union Labour and Employment Minister Mallikarjun Kharge on 13th
December, 2012 said that the Circular November 30th, 2012 pertaining
to Guidelines for Quasi-judicial proceedings under section 7A of the
EPF&MP Act, 1952 issued by the EPFO on the inclusion of certain
allowances etc. for calculating Provident Fund contribution is to be
kept in abeyance. So the status quo will continue.
