The Math Behind EPF Calculator (Employees Provident Fund)
Understanding the true mechanics of this instrument helps you make optimal decisions with your money.
1. Free Employer Matching
Your employer contributes 12% of your basic salary — but only 3.67% goes to your EPF account. The remaining 8.33% (capped at ₹1,250/month) goes into EPS (Employees Pension Scheme) for a monthly pension after 58.
2. Tax-Free After 5 Years
EPF withdrawal after 5 years of continuous service is completely tax-free (principal + interest). If you change jobs and transfer your EPF via UAN, the 5-year clock continues unbroken.
3. High-Earner Tax on Interest
If your EPF contribution exceeds ₹2.5 Lakhs per year (basic salary above ₹1.73L/month), the interest earned on the amount above ₹2.5L becomes taxable. Budget 2021 introduced this rule.
