How this is calculated

Each month: employee contribution = 12% of basic + DA; employer EPF share = 12% of basic + DA − 8.33% of basic + DA (capped at the EPS wage ceiling). Interest for each month is the opening balance × annual rate ÷ 12; the year's interest is credited at year end. Basic + DA grows by the yearly increase you enter.

Questions

How much goes into EPF each month?

You contribute 12% of basic + DA. Your employer also contributes 12%, of which 8.33% (on wages up to the EPS ceiling) goes to the Employees' Pension Scheme; the rest goes to your EPF account.

How is EPF interest calculated?

EPFO calculates interest on the monthly running balance and credits it once a year. FID follows the same approach and uses the latest declared rate as the default.
