Understanding PF Calculation: How Do You Calculate It Based on Working Days?

I want to know the PF calculation for one of our employees based on the number of working days. The joining date is January 20, 2025. Her net salary is 51,050, and her gross salary is 53,050. How can the PF be calculated for the specific number of working days?

PF Calculation on Basic + DA

PF is calculated on basic + DA only, and the ceiling limit is 15K. This means a maximum of 1800 (12% of 15000) will be deducted depending on the number of days he/she worked.

Please clarify:

1. How did you arrive at the gross salary and net salary for January 2025? Is it for 12 days only?

2. Is Rs 53,050 the salary for 12 days only?

3. Do you give PF on the actual gross salary or restrict it to 12% of Rs 15,000?

4. If you give PF on the actual salary, then deduct 12% of the earned gross for 12 days and contribute the same amount.

5. If you restrict the PF to 12% of Rs 15,000, take the 15,000 for the whole month and then arrive at the PF qualifying salary for 12 days. That is 15,000/30 x 12 or 6,000. 12% of Rs 6,000 will be the PF for the month of January.
