Friend, before knowing PF calculations it is mandetory to know different pay viz Basic Pay, Gross pay & Net pay. The PF will be calculated only on Basic Pay. For Example Gross pay of a particular designation is as under. Basic pay (Rs 1660) + 830 (HRA) + 830 (Other Allownces) = 3320/-. Now PF is calculated on the basic pay i.e Rs 1660/-. Then as per EPF Act the employee and employeer must contribute 12% each on the basic pay (here Rs 1660/-) total 24% is to be remittted to PF authorities every month. Out of 12 % employer share 3.67% will go to EPF fund and 8.33% will go to EPF pension Fund.

HI Nishant,

Please see below how pf is calculated
Provident Fund, 1952:


 Provident fund is calculated @ 12% on the basic salary, which indeed is deducted from Employee's salary and the same plus 12% on the basic is contributed by the employer. So the aggregate 12% + 12% is remitted to the Provident fund Department and along with includes Administrative charges like EDLIS+Admin works contribution is 1.61%(1.11%+0.5%)
 I.e.; 12%+12%+1.61%=25.61%
 Where as in Employer contribution 12% is divided into 8.33%(PS) + 3.67% (EPF)

PS: Pension Scheme
EPF: Employee PF
EDLIS: Employee direct link insurance scheme

Always PF 12% is calculated on Basic Salary.

So, Sum of covered for employee total PF is 12%(Emp) + 3.67% (Employer)=15.67%

Rest of the 8.33% covered on Pension scheme.

Example:

Employee Side- 12% of Basic(Gross is:8000/month)
So if Basic of an employee is 3200/Basic+DA then
ESI contribution would be 3200*12% = 384 Rupees

Employer side- 12% of Basic(Gross is:8000/month)
ESI contribution would be 3200* 12% = 384 Rupees.

Admin charges – 1.61% of Basic(Gross is:8000/month)
Contribution would be 3200*1.61% = 52 Rupees.

Total: 384+384+52 = 820 Rupees.
