Doubt on the calculation of "Total EDLI Contribution (ER Share A/C 21)"

Option 1: Total EDLI Contribution (ER Share A/C 21) x Gross Wages

Option 2: Total EDLI Contribution (ER Share A/C 21) x EDLI Wages

Please suggest to us which option complies with the EPF Act.

EDLI should be calculated on the total wages on which 12% is contributed by the employer. For example, if EPF contribution salary is Rs. 5,00,000/- per month, then EDLI would be calculated at 0.5% on Rs. 5,00,000/-, which is equal to Rs. 2,500/- per month. However, the total gross may be more than Rs. 5,00,000/- per month.

Dear Sravan,

The Employees’ Deposit Linked Insurance (EDLI) contribution is applicable on salaries up to a ceiling (presently set at Rs. 15,000). There is no requirement to contribute beyond this ceiling limit. Compensation is capped based on the ceiling salary.
