Can Employers' Full Contribution Go to EPS for Post-2014 Joinees? Seeking Clarity and Official Sources

Hi all members,

I would like to clarify whether for employees who joined after 01/09/2014, the entire portion of the employer's contribution can go to the Employee Pension Scheme (EPS). If this is possible, please provide me with the circular or government resolution (GR) published by the Employees' Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) in India.

Thank you.

Your entire contribution cannot be covered under EPS. However, if you wish to save for the future, you can increase your contribution percentage from 12% to the next ceiling level. Additionally, the company's contribution remains the same whether you contribute 12% or more.

In my opinion, it is advisable to focus on saving rather than solely relying on the PF saving method.
