Dear Seniors, Please confirm if we should deduct PF on over time paid to employees. Also would like to know about ESI. Regards

No need to pay PF on overtime because nobody merges the overtime amount into the basic amount, so that question doesn't arise. However, you must pay professional tax on all wages, including the overtime amount.

ESI is applicable to pay on overtime if it doesn’t exceeds your gross to 15000

The payment of overtime is not a part of the wages as defined under the Payment of Wages Act. It is not necessary to include OT wages in the computation of PF contribution.

Dear Mrs. Chopra,

If any arrears are being paid against any increase or revision of the salary structure under the definition of Wages, in such a case, PF deduction is a must but not on the arrears payment other than wages.
