Hello Ashok,
To change the EPF wages for an employee in India, you'll need to follow the steps below:
1. ✅ Sign in to your Employer's portal on the EPFO website.
2. ✅ Navigate to the 'Member' section, and then choose 'Register New Member.'
3. ✅ You should see a list of your employees. Locate the employee whose EPF wages you want to change, and click 'View Details.'
4. ✅ In the subsequent screen, find the 'Basic Details' section. Here, you'll see the current EPF wages.
5. ✅ Click on 'Edit Details' next to the 'Salary Details' section.
6. ✅ You should now be able to change the EPF wages. Make sure the amount you enter is in accordance with the EPF Act.
7. ✅ Review the changes and click 'Save.'
🚨 Please note that changes in EPF wages will affect the employee's EPF contribution and may have implications for the employee's income tax. Make sure the employee is aware of these changes.
📚 As per the EPF Act of 1952, the employer's contribution is 12% of the employee's basic salary plus dearness allowance. The same amount is contributed by the employee. Any changes should comply with this law.
🔵 Remember, all changes in the portal should be done after careful consideration and in accordance with relevant labor laws.
I hope this helps. If you have further queries, feel free to ask.
