Good to know

You contribute 12% of basic + DA (10% in a few establishments). The employer also pays 12%, but 8.33% of wages up to the wage ceiling goes to the Employees' Pension Scheme (EPS) and only the rest goes to your EPF. The Union Cabinet raised the ceiling from ₹15,000 to ₹25,000 from 17 September 2026, so the EPS share can now be up to about ₹2,083 a month.

EPF interest for FY 2025-26 is 8.25%, as declared by EPFO and ratified in 2026. Interest is worked out monthly on the running balance and credited once a year; the calculator does the same and assumes the rate stays at 8.25%.

EPF is tax-free on withdrawal after 5 years of continuous service. Interest on your own contributions above ₹2.5 lakh a year is taxable. The pension from EPS is separate and is not included here.
