I have a query about the deduction of PF amount. Is it deducted from the basic salary or the gross salary? For example, if Rs. 500/- is being deducted from the employee's salary, how much will be deposited in the PF Account by the Employer? Will it be Rs. 500/- from the employee and Rs. 500/- from the Employer, totaling Rs. 1000/-?
Also, please explain the interest rate calculation on the PF amount if withdrawn after one and a half years.

Hi Jay,
1) PF is deducted on Basic.
2) Rs 500 (Employee Contribution) will be deposited in the PF account. If 500 is the contribution, then taking it as 12%, your basic is around Rs 4166. Employer Contribution will be on Basic Rs 4166 - 3.67%, i.e., Rs 152 will be deposited in your PF Account, and - 8.33%, i.e., Rs 347 will be deposited into the Pension Account. This total contribution (3.67% + 8.33%) will come as 12%. So your PF Account contribution will be Rs 500 + 152 = Rs 652.
Hope I am clear.

You don't have any problem to claim your PF. Just fill out the withdrawal form (Form-19 along with Form 10-C), have the form attested by your employer, and submit it to the PF office. Your claim will be settled within 1.5 to 3 months.
If you prefer not to withdraw, you also have the option to transfer your funds to your current PF account number.

Hi Chris,
As per your Basic Salary, your Contribution is 12% - 1200 Rs and the Employer Contribution is 3.67% - 367 Rs. The total amount is 1567 Rs.
You might be wondering about the remaining Employer contribution from the 12%. The rest will be deposited into the Pension Account, which you can withdraw only upon retirement.

Hi Chris,
The calculation which I gave is for your understanding of the amount. However, there is a ceiling limit of 6500 Rs. Since your basic is above that,
If your employer permits you to contribute more, then the above calculation will change. However, the employer is only liable to pay their contribution limited to 6500 Rs.
If otherwise:
Case 1: Your Contribution - 12% (Max 6500) - 780
Employer Contribution - 3.76% (Max 6500) - 239
Total - 1019
Case 2: Your Contribution - 12% (10,000) - 1200
Employer Contribution - 3.76% (Max 6500) - 239
Total - 1439
It all depends on the organization's policy. If you have any doubts, please post them to me.

Dear friends,
EPF contribution is not restricted to basic salary. Basic, DA, Personal Pay, and other components of the salary will be considered for EPF calculation.
Up to a salary of Rs. 6500/-, the contribution is statutory. Beyond Rs. 6500/-, it depends on the employer. However, the statement that only 3.67% will go to the individual EPF account from the employer is not entirely correct.
For example, if an employee draws a salary of Rs. 10,000/- and the employer contributes to the full salary, then the total contribution will be Rs. 1200/- + Rs. 1200/- = Rs. 2400/-. The amount to the Pension Fund will be 8.33% of Rs. 6500/- (statutory), i.e., Rs. 541. The contribution from the employer at 3.67% will be Rs. 367/-. In this case, it will be Rs. 1200 - Rs. 541 = Rs. 659.
Therefore, the contribution from the employer is 3.67% of Rs. 6500/- plus 12% of the balance salary.

Dear friends,
As Anilkumar suggested, I shall provide details on PF pension calculation.
There is no upper limit for EPS-95 pension. For pension calculation, the service will be divided into 2 parts: service before 16.11.95 and service from 16.11.95 onwards. The first one is referred to as past service, and the latter as pensionable service. Past service is categorized into 4 slabs: service up to 11 years, 12 to 15 years, 16 to 19 years, and 20 & above. If the salary on 16.11.95 is below Rs. 2500, the monthly compensation will be Rs. 80, 95, 120, and 150 respectively. For salaries of Rs. 2500 & above, the compensation will be Rs. 85, 105, 135, and 170. This amount is applicable to those who turn 58 years old on 16.11.95. For those who turn 58 after 16.11.95, the compensation will be adjusted by a factor specified in table B, based on the time difference between 16.11.95 and the date of completing 58 years.
Regarding pensionable service, there is a formula to calculate pension: Pensionable Salary x Pensionable Service / 70. Pensionable salary can fall into 3 categories: 1) Below Rs. 6500. 2) Rs. 6500 & above but contributions at the statutory ceiling of Rs. 6500. 3) Above Rs. 6500 & opted to contribute based on actual salary. For the 2nd category, the pensionable salary is Rs. 6500. In the other two cases, the pensionable salary will be the average of the last twelve months. Additionally, a 2-year bonus will be given for pensionable service of 20 years & above.
For further details, please visit the website: http://epfindia.com <link updated to site home>
One example I would like to mention:
Date of Birth - 2.1.1961
Date of Joining - 23.2.1987
Salary on 16.11.95 - Rs. 2500 & above
Salary upon turning 58 on 1.1.2019 - Rs. 6500 (Statutory Ceiling)
Past Service - 8 years 9 months (approximately rounded to 9 years)
Compensation - Rs. 85
Factor as per Table B (for less than 24 years, i.e., the difference between 16.11.95 & 1.1.2019) - 6.102
(This can be calculated as 1.08 to the power of 24 - 0.5, correct to 3 decimals)
Past Service Benefit - 85 x 6.102 = Rs. 519 - (A)
Pensionable Service - 23 years
Bonus (Service is 20 & above) - 2
Pensionable Salary - Rs. 6500
Pensionable Benefit - 6500 x 25 / 70 = 2321 - (B)
Total Pension - (A) + (B) = Rs. 2840
I will provide an Excel worksheet to calculate pension. Enter the Date of Birth, Date of Joining, Date of Separation from Service, Salary on 16.11.95, Salary on Separation from Service (in compliance with the contribution to the pension fund), and breaks in service before and after 16.11.95, if any, in the green-colored column. The results will appear in the yellow-colored column. The red color is for static information.

Dear Pramod,
EDLI is the abbreviation of Employees' Deposit Linked Insurance Scheme. Here, deposit means the average deposit in EPF. When an employee dies while in service, the family will receive some compensation based on his/her deposit. To claim, the employer has to pay 0.5% as its premium.
Determination of Deposit:
The average deposit of the last twelve months as well as total service will be calculated, and whichever is less will be taken for the calculation.
Determination of Compensation:
Up to Rs. 50,000, he will receive the actual amount. Beyond the first Rs. 50,000, he will receive 40% of the rest; subject to a ceiling of Rs. 100,000.
For example:
a) Deposit Rs. 100,000
For the first 50,000 - 50,000, Next 50,000 - 20,000
Total - Rs. 70,000 (will receive the full amount as it does not exceed 100,000).
b) Deposit Rs. 200,000
For the first 50,000 - 50,000, Next 150,000 - 60,000
Total - Rs. 110,000 (will receive Rs. 100,000 only as it exceeds 100,000).
c) Deposit Rs. 300,000
For the first 50,000 - 50,000, Next 250,000 - 100,000
Total - Rs. 150,000 (will receive Rs. 100,000 only as it exceeds 100,000).
However, there are better insurance schemes with the same premium, even without considering the deposits. Some organizations are exempted from EDLI and instead provide better benefits in lieu of EDLI. There are schemes that specify more than Rs. 100,000 for natural death and double benefits for accidental death.

Can anyone tell me how we can calculate the FINAL amount of PF?
My last basic was 6000, and 12% of this was PF, i.e., 720.
I worked there for 9 months.
I had also submitted the PF withdrawal form.
But I want to know how to calculate/credit how much the final amount for PF including interest.
If anyone knows this, please let me know.
Thanks & Regards,
Darshan Palkar
Dear Darshan,
According to your Basic Salary Rs. 6000.00 P.M.
Your Provident Fund deducted is Rs. 720.00 P.M.
and Total Amount Deposited to P. F. Department Rs. 1,440.00 P.M. (720.00 deducted from your salary and Rs. 720.00 from the Employer)
For the Nine Months, Your Total Amount Deposited in the PF Department is Rs. 14,400.00 (1440.00 x 9 = 12,960.00)
Interest Rate is 8.5 percent P. A. Calculated every six months. That would be around 550.00
That means You will get Rs. 13,510.00.
It will take 45 days or more to clear and will come directly into your saving bank account from the SBI Bank.
Hope this information will help you.

Akhilesh
Dear Mr. Darshan,
You are not applicable for Pension Right now.
When your account exits up to 9 yrs, then only the PF account bifurcated into two categories:
1. EPF and 2. Pension.
EPF is 15.67% and 8.33% is pension.
So if your account is below 9 yrs, then withdrawal amount is 24%. (means amount Rs. ?)

Re: PF Contribution Amount Calculation
Hi Chris,
As per your Basic
Your Contribution is (12%) - 1200 Rs
Employer Contribution - (3.67%) - 367 Rs
Total - 1567 Rs
You might be thinking what about the rest of the Employer contribution out of 12%. Well, the rest will be deposited into the Pension A/c which you can withdraw on retirement only.
Retirement means exactly what? That means he cannot withdraw both sides 12%+12% = 24% + 8.5% = ? after one/two years of service. When he will get/claim the remaining 8.67%, please clear these, it's confusion, that's why I posted existing references.

So many quotations are furnished by you. Accordingly, it is difficult to understand what you aim for with this. However, I shall comment on the PF deposit cited above.
Here, only the final salary is given as Rs. 6000. From the final salary, PF statement preparation is not possible. We have to get monthly salary details throughout his service.
Assuming that the salary for the 9 months is uniform, viz. Rs. 6000, after the 9th-month remittance, the employee's contribution with interest will be Rs. 6666 and the employer's contribution with interest will be Rs. 2038. (Note that interest is monthly compounding). I shall insert an Excel sheet for this calculation. Entry of corresponding monthly salaries will give the output.
In addition, he is eligible to get a withdrawal benefit of Rs. 6120, i.e., Factor as per Table D for service x last drawn salary. Here, 9 months will be rounded up as 1 year. Its equivalent factor is 1.02. 6000 x 1.02 = 6120.
Now, what are the remaining doubts? Please make it clear.

Dear Nushad,
In the above case, the employee's contribution is Rs. 780, and the employer's contribution is Rs. 239 (total Rs. 1019) to the PF account. This accumulation can be withdrawn through Form 19.
A balance of Rs. 541 will go to the pension account. If you are not eligible for a pension due to insufficient minimum service, you can either apply for a scheme certificate or for a withdrawal benefit. A scheme certificate can be used later either to add to future service or to obtain a withdrawal benefit.
Please note that the accumulation in PF and in the pension fund is computed using different methods. In PF, the present annual interest of 8.5% will be monthly compounded and rounded to the nearest rupee separately for both employee and employer contributions. However, in EPS, the withdrawal benefit is calculated by multiplying a factor stipulated in Table D by the last drawn salary. For 1 to 9 years of service, the factors are 1.02, 1.99, 2.98, 3.99, 5.02, 6.07, 7.13, 8.22, 9.33, respectively.
For example, if your service is 6 years and 7 months and the last drawn salary is Rs. 6500; your service will be rounded to 7 years. The factor as per Table D, 7.13, will be multiplied by the salary of 6500, resulting in Rs. 46345.
In other words, the withdrawal benefit is Rs. 46345/-

Thank you for understanding my point. Thank you a lot.
Balance Rs. 541 will go to the pension account. If you are not eligible for a pension due to insufficient minimum service, you can either apply for a scheme certificate or for withdrawal benefit. The scheme certificate can be used later either to add with future service or to get a withdrawal benefit.
Dear Abbas,
I understand the scheme certificate, but does the withdrawal form refer to form 10C if I am not mistaken? If I do not qualify for a pension due to insufficient service, can I withdraw the same pension contribution by filling out form 10C and will it accrue interest?
PF credits are typically processed within 2-3 months, but how long does it take for the pension account fund to be credited if not qualifying for a pension?

Dear Nushad,
For both the Scheme certificate and withdrawal benefit from EPS, form 10-C has to be used. For withdrawal benefit, the calculation is not based on interest accumulation like the PF amount. There is a factor stipulated in Table D that will be multiplied by the last salary drawn (subject to ceiling). The factors for 1 to 9 years are 1.02, 1.99, 2.98, 3.99, 5.02, 6.07, 7.13, 8.22, and 9.33 respectively. I have already provided an example of this. Please review it.
As per the rules, PF is entitled from the very first day of employment. If there is any delay, it may be due to procedural delays followed by the employer.

Hi Fellows,
I worked for a company from November 2005 to November 2009 as a Team Leader in Production. After that, I resigned from my job and started helping my uncle in his business. Last year, I withdrew money from my PF account using Form 19, and they gave me a cheque for around 67K. My initial salary in that company was 7500/month, and my last drawn salary was 17500/month. I need assistance with the calculation (Balance sheet) for my PF, and I would also like to know if I have any funds to collect such as a pension, etc. Please help me with this as I am in urgent need of money.

Please never ask about the final PF amount you will get by quoting your last drawn basic. There are a number of things that actually affect the calculation:
1. The Basic might have changed from time to time.
2. The PF calculation depends on the employer.
Example of PF Contribution Calculation
For example, if the Basic is 12,000 Rs, then the employee contribution will be 1,440 Rs. However, when it comes to employer contribution, there are three cases:
Employer contribution gets deposited into two accounts: Pension and PF.
Case 1 - 8.33% of 6,500 Rs = 541 Rs into pension and 3.67% of 6,500 Rs = 239 Rs into PF. Here, the employer has restricted their contribution to 6,500 Rs basic.
Case 2 - 8.33% of 6,500 Rs = 541 Rs into pension and 1,440 Rs - 541 Rs = 899 Rs into PF. Here, the pension is restricted, but more is contributed into PF.
Case 3 - 8.33% of 12,000 Rs = 1,000 Rs into pension and 3.67% on 12,000 Rs = 440 Rs into PF. Both are not capped to the maximum limit.
Depending on these scenarios, your PF balance can change. So please see what your employer is following.

I want to know how this calculation has come on my PF. I was getting a gross salary of 25k, and 1247 was deducted as PF. The company's letter stated that the employer's contribution would be 1396 for PF every month. I worked for 5 months and now have joined a new company. When I checked my PF account, it shows the following: the account balance of EE amount is 3436, and ER amount is 1801.

Hi,
I have worked in more than 6 companies, and almost I have withdrawn all PF. So as you mentioned, there will still be 8% of the Pension amount which I can withdraw only at my 50s. Is my understanding correct? Also, as I have so many PF accounts, will it be difficult to claim? Is there any way to transfer the pension amount to the current PF Account even if the PF amount is withdrawn?
Thank you.
