How is the 12% employer contribution split between EPF and EPS?
Out of the employer’s 12% contribution, 8.33% goes towards the Employee Pension Scheme (EPS), capped at a statutory wage limit of ₹1,250 per month, while the remaining 3.67% plus any excess goes directly into the employee’s EPF account.
Is EPF interest and maturity withdrawal completely tax-free?

Can you increase your contribution beyond 12% through VPF (Voluntary Provident Fund)?
Yes! Employees can contribute up to 100% of their Basic Pay and DA to Voluntary Provident Fund (VPF), which earns the exact same 8.25% interest rate as EPF.
