Sir,

I am working as an HR professional in the hotel industry, but I do not have much experience. I would like to understand the details regarding PF and Pension withdrawals. Could you please inform me about what is eligible to receive the amount and the period of time required to receive the amount in my bank account?

Dear [User],

As you have asked about the withdrawal procedure of provident fund and pension share, here is the information you need:

12% of the employee share is deducted and deposited in the provident fund, while 12% of the employer share is deducted. Out of this 12%, 8.33% is deposited in the pension account, and the remaining 3.67% is deposited in the PF account. When a person leaves the organization, they are entitled to withdraw this amount.

You can submit the withdrawal form after 60 days of leaving the organization. You need to fill out form 19 and 10 c for withdrawal, get it attested by the employer, and deposit it at the RPFC office. Generally, it takes 45 to 50 days to transfer the amount to your account. If your length of service is less than 6 months, you will not be able to withdraw the pension share.

Thank you,

Dear all,

In my company of 200 employees, I am the first HR person. I have to design a new salary structure for the sales staff. However, the problem is that creating the new structure will affect their net salary. Therefore, I need to educate them about PF, ESIC, PT, TDS, and their benefits. Could you please share any kind of presentation with me to help them understand the statutory benefits?

Dear Priyanka,

I will explain to you about Form-3A (Revised) step by step,

For example, if you are going to submit Form-3A (Revised) of an employee who has resigned from your organization.

1. Account No - You have to mention your employee's PF account number.

2. Name - You have to mention your employee's name with initials.

3. Father's name - You have to mention your employee's father's name with initials.

4. Name and Address of the establishment - You have to specify your organization's name and address.

5. Statutory Rate of contribution - 12%

6. Voluntary higher rate of employee's contribution - There is an option for employees to contribute a voluntary higher rate towards EPF. In that case, if any employee is contributing voluntarily, you have to specify the rate of contribution; otherwise, you have to mention Nil.

7. Employee contribution on higher wages to EPF Y/N - If the employee contributed a higher rate of wages, you have to specify Yes; otherwise, you have to mention NO.

8. Voluntary contribution Y/N - If there is any voluntary contribution towards EPF, you have to mention Yes; otherwise, No.

a) Column No. 1 - You have to mention the months in that column starting from March paid in April to February paid in March.
b) Column No. 2 - Amount of wages - You have to specify the employee's Basic + DA. For example, if your employee's basic is 5000 and DA is 1500, making a total of 6500, you have to mention 6500 as the amount of wages.
c) Column No. 3 - EPF 12% - For example, as the same above, from 6500, you have to calculate 12%, which will be 780.
d) Column 2 & 3 will be employee share, and 4 & 5 will be employer share. Employer's share of 12% will be classified into two ways; 3.67% will be accounted in EPF, and the remaining 8.33% will be accounted in the Pension fund. For example, if 6500 is your employee's basic and DA, the employer's contribution will be 12%:
6500 * 3.67% = 239
6500 * 8.33% = 541

e) Column 6. Refund of advance - If an employee works for more than seven years, he/she is eligible for an advance in PF. In that case, if you have refunded the advance, you have to mention the advance details.
f) Column 7. No. of days/Period of non-contributing service - If the employee had any break in service, you have to mention it; otherwise, there is no need. For example, if the employee had a break in service due to illness or an accident and came back after 1 or 2 months, it will be treated as a break in the employee's service.

I hope your doubts have been cleared.

Dear Sara,

Professional Tax may differ from state to state and municipality to municipality.

The Profession Tax assessment and collection come under the provision of tax on professions, trades, callings, and employments, under the Tamil Nadu Municipal Laws (Second Amendment) Act 1998. Profession Tax is a significant source of income next to Property Tax. The Profession Tax assessment is calculated based on the Half-Yearly gross income for the following categories:
- Individuals
- Private Establishments
- Salaried People (Central and State Govt.)
- Companies

Every company transacting business and every person engaged actively or otherwise in any Profession, Trade, Calling, and Employment within the Chennai Corporation city limits has to pay half-yearly Profession Tax, as per section 138C of Tamil Nadu Municipal Laws Second Amendment Act 59 of 1998. The tax rates are given below in the table in Form-2. For the assessment of Profession Tax, one has to make an application for registration. The Corporation of Chennai will assign a permanent number in the style of PTNAN.

Online computerization of Profession Tax and payment of Profession Tax through online channels are to be initiated. They can also check the status of payment through the website.

Based on the gross income declared, the Half-Yearly Profession Tax will be calculated as per the table given below:

The below table is for Chennai,

Sl.No. Average Half-Yearly Income Half-Yearly Profession Tax
1 Up to Rs. 21,000/- - NIL
2 Rs. 21,001/- to Rs. 30,000/- - Rs. 75/-
3 Rs. 30,001/- to Rs. 45,000/- - Rs. 188/-
4 Rs. 45,001/- to Rs. 60,000/- - Rs. 390/-
5 Rs. 60,001/- to Rs. 75,000/- - Rs. 585/-
6 Rs. 75,001/- and above - - Rs. 810/-

For example, if an employee earns 10,000/- per month, it means he will be earning 60,000/- in six months. He has to pay 390/- as a professional Tax in half-yearly.

With the help of the above table, we can calculate the Professional Tax.

Hi Mohan,

Your contribution on PF has been awesome. Thank you.

I have one question regarding the same. I had been working at IBM Kolkata from 3rd Nov. 2005 to 12th Dec. 2006. However, I left the organization without serving the notice period, and now I am working in Bangalore. When leaving the organization, I did not fill out any PF account closure form or any PF-related form. Now, I wish to withdraw my PF. Can anyone be kind enough to tell me the procedures to withdraw my PF in this scenario?

Thanks in advance,

Dear Alex,

Thank you. Just fill out Form 19 for claiming the employees' provident fund dues and Form 10-C for claiming withdrawal benefits under the employee's pension scheme. Send those forms to your previous employer and request them to process the PF withdrawal form.
