If an employee gross salary is 9000/- what will be the EPF wages and EPF deduction?

Hey, If an employee gross salary is 9000/- what will be the EPF wages and EPF deduction?

EPF contribution is applicable on basic salary,
rate of deduction is 12% of basic salary

basic salary is below the minimum wages, i want to clarify, 15000 is the basic ceiling wage, on this 12% will be deduct.
my point is; if employee gross salary is 9000, on his basic salary which will be 4500 we will calculate 12% on 4500. is it okay maximum range is 15000, what will be the minimum basic wage

You need to deduct 12% of 9000. because of supreme court judgement say that PF is applicable on sum of all allowances including basic and basic can not be less than local minimum wages.
