Hi Anuradha,
I am new to the forum, so I am finding it difficult to gather information from the site. I have sorted out the problem relating to the restriction of Rs. 6500. However, I still have doubts about the various accounts to which the contributions should be deposited at the end of the period. I would appreciate some help with that.

Dear Debashis,
In PF Main deduction, there are contributions from both employers and employees:
a) Employees contribute 12% of the basic salary.
b) For employers, the 12% is divided into 8.33% for the Pension Scheme and 3.67% for the Provident Fund.
c) Additionally, there is the Employee Deposit Linked Insurance (EDLI) scheme, to which only the employer contributes 0.5% of the PF salary.
d) There are administrative charges, categorized as PF Administrative Charges at 1.10% and EDLI Administrative Charges at 0.01%.
e) If your company has its own PF trust, you are exempt from paying administrative charges, but you are charged Inspection Charges at 0.18%.
