PF Contribution Calculator

Employee and employer PF contribution — impact on take-home.

Compute Employees' Provident Fund (EPF), Employees' Pension Scheme (EPS) and Employees' Deposit Linked Insurance (EDLI) contributions for both employee and employer.

Labour Codes effective 21 November 2025: The Code on Social Security, 2020 mandates a uniform wage definition — Basic + DA + Retaining Allowance. If other allowances exceed 50% of total remuneration, the excess is added back to wages for PF / gratuity / bonus calculations. Salary restructuring is necessary for many CTC packages. EPF / ESI schemes continue under existing legislation until new schemes are notified under the SS Code.
