Understanding EPF

What is an EPF Calculator?

A tool designed for salaried professionals to forecast their retirement savings based on current salary, expected increments, and mandated contribution rules.

Your Compulsory Savings Tracker

The Employee Provident Fund (EPF) is a retirement benefit scheme for salaried employees. Every month, 12% of your Basic Salary + DA is deducted from your pay, and your employer matches this contribution. However, the employer's share is split: 3.67% goes to EPF, and 8.33% goes to the Employee Pension Scheme (EPS). This calculator focuses on the **EPF Corpus** growth.

Salary Hike Impact

Unlike fixed investments, your EPF contribution increases every time you get a raise. Our tool factors in your annual increment percentage.

Compound Interest

Interest is calculated monthly on the running balance but credited annually, creating a compounding effect over your career.

Tax Benefits

Your share is tax-deductible under Section 80C. The interest and maturity amount are generally tax-free (conditions apply).

Split Contribution Logic

Automatically separates the Employer's contribution into EPF (3.67%) and EPS (8.33%) for accurate corpus calculation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common queries about Provident Fund.

What happens to EPF if I change jobs?

Your EPF account is linked to your UAN (Universal Account Number). When you switch jobs, you simply need to provide your UAN to the new employer, and the balance will be transferred or continued. It does not lapse.

Can I contribute more than 12%?

Yes, under the VPF (Voluntary Provident Fund) provision, an employee can contribute up to 100% of their Basic Salary + DA to EPF. However, the employer is not bound to match contributions above the mandatory 12%.

Is EPF withdrawal taxable?

If you withdraw EPF after 5 years of continuous service, it is tax-free. If withdrawn before 5 years, it is taxable. Maturity at retirement is fully tax-free.
