For ESI, the rate of contribution is 4.75% for the employer and 1.75% for the employees. For PF, the rate is a uniform 12% for both. Employees have the choice for additional contributions.

Thank you.

In EPF Deduction:

- Employer share is 13.61%
- Employee share is 12%
- Total share of EPF is 25.61%

And the ESI deduction is correct as said by Mr. Upadhaya.
