Hi Friends,

Dear Member,
Go through the Act under which you are to grant/declare holidays for your establishment.In general Ambedkar Jayanti (14th April) is not a mandatory holiday.If the appropriate Govt derclare this as mandatory holiday then we are required to follow the Govt notification, if applicable to us.

Dear All,
I have made a holiday list & uploading it for your reference.

Attaching two more regions for your reference

How to contribute Voluntary Provident Fund if employee Basic Salary + DA = 20000 and he wants to deduct 100% i.e 20000 as VPF, please let me know the calculation of the same and how to make entry in ECR file.

PF deductions cannot be more than 20%. 12% is compulsory, thus from his side only 8% can be deducted. Also the company has no obligation to contribute more than 12% as PF. so 8% on Basic+DA will be as VPF
