PF (Provident Fund)

The Employees’ Provident Fund (EPF) is a retirement savings scheme for salaried employees in India. It is managed by the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO).

The employer and employee both contribute 12% of the employee’s basic salary and dearness allowance (DA) towards the EPF account. The employer’s contribution is deposited in the EPF account of the employee.

The employee’s contribution is deposited in the EPF account of the employee and the employer’s contribution is deposited in the EPF account of the employer.

The employee’s contribution is eligible for tax deduction under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Example:

If an employee’s basic salary and DA is Rs. 10,000 per month, then the employer and employee will contribute 12% of Rs. 10,000 each, i.e. Rs. 1,200 each.

The employer’s contribution of Rs. 1,200 will be deposited in the EPF account of the employee and the employee’s contribution of Rs. 1,200 will be deposited in the EPF account of the employer.

ESI (Employees’ State Insurance)

The Employees’ State Insurance (ESI) is a social security scheme for salaried employees in India. It is managed by the Employees’ State Insurance Corporation (ESIC).

The employer and employee both contribute 4.75% of the employee’s basic salary and DA towards the ESI account. The employer’s contribution is deposited in the ESI account of the employee.

The employee’s contribution is deposited in the ESI account of the employee and the employer’s contribution is deposited in the ESI account of the employer.

The employee’s contribution is eligible for tax deduction under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Example:

If an employee’s basic salary and DA is Rs. 10,000 per month, then the employer and employee will contribute 4.75% of Rs. 10,000 each, i.e. Rs. 475 each.

The employer’s contribution of Rs. 475 will be deposited in the ESI account of the employee and the employee’s contribution of Rs. 475 will be deposited in the ESI account of the employer.

  • But the amount deposited in pension account is not withdrawable after 10 yrs of service of the employee. It will be paid as a monthly pension after 58 yrs of the employee. If your service is less than 10yrs then you can withdraw your total pension like PF amount. Once it crosses 10yrs then you can’t able to withdraw it.

The employee’s contribution to the EPFO for PF will be 12% of (Rs. 10,000 + Rs. 5,000) = Rs. 1,700. The total contribution to the EPFO for PF will be Rs. 3,400.

The employer’s contribution to the ESIC for ESI will be 4.75% of (Rs. 10,000 + Rs. 5,000) = Rs. 637.50. The employee’s contribution to the ESIC for ESI will be 1.75% of (Rs. 10,000 + Rs. 5,000) = Rs. 237.50. The total contribution to the ESIC for ESI will be Rs. 875.
