PF Calculation Details
Please help me figure out the details of PF calculation. If the employee is earning more than Rs. 6500, it involves a 12% employee contribution, a 12% employer contribution, and a 1% admin charge, totaling 25% of the basic salary, stipend, and 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!

Additional Points on PF Contribution
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%.

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.
