Dear Dilip, If you search will get detail in various posts.. For your reference here are few basic details.. PF is contributed 12% of Basic & DA from both employee as well as employer side. ESIC is deducted @1.75% of gross salary per month from employee and 4.75% of Gross from employer. whereas ceiling is 10,000/- per month only. If one's gross is more than 10,000/- then he shall be exempted from the ESIC. Professional tax is deducted on gross salary, here it has some range for the deduction and it varies from State to State. Like for Gujarat upto 3000 gross salary is exempted from PT. upto 5999/- deducts Rs. 20, upto 8999/- deducts Rs. 80, upto 11999/- attracts 150 and above that attracts 200/- rupees. Regards, Amit Seth.
