This month: you put in ₹3,600; your employer puts ₹1,517 into EPF and ₹2,083 into EPS.
The employer's 8.33% pension share isn't part of your EPF balance. It builds your monthly EPS pension instead, and stops at 58.

How PF Calculator (EPF) compares
- Your EPFO passbook
- The passbook on the EPFO member portal shows what's actually in your account today. Use it for your starting balance, then this calculator to look ahead.
- A spreadsheet
- You can model EPF in a sheet, but the EPS split, the ceiling and the monthly interest take some care. The calculator does those sums as you type.
How to use PF Calculator (EPF)
- Enter your monthly basic pay + DA, your age, and the age you plan to retire.
- Add the pay rise you expect each year and, if you have one, your EPF balance from the passbook.
- Check your contribution (12% unless you add VPF), the interest rate, and whether you're in the pension scheme (EPS).
- Read your corpus at retirement, then scroll the table to see each year's money going in and the interest it earns.
Frequently asked questions
- How much goes into my EPF each month?
- You put in 12% of your basic pay + DA, and your employer matches it with 12%. But not all of your employer's share lands in EPF: 8.33% of your wages up to ₹25,000 goes to the Employees' Pension Scheme (EPS), at most ₹2,083 a month, and the rest goes to EPF. On ₹20,000 basic + DA that's ₹2,400 from you, ₹734 from your employer into EPF and ₹1,666 into EPS.
- What changed with the ₹25,000 wage ceiling?
- From 17 September 2026 the EPFO wage ceiling went up from ₹15,000 to ₹25,000 a month (notification S.O. 5109(E)). Anyone earning up to ₹25,000 basic + DA now has to be in EPF, EPS and EDLI, and the EPS share is worked out on wages up to ₹25,000, so it can be as much as ₹2,083 a month instead of ₹1,250. If you were enrolled on ₹15,000 while earning more, your contributions may rise too.
- How is EPF interest calculated?
- EPFO works out interest every month on your running balance and credits it once a year, at the end of the financial year. So it compounds yearly. The calculator does the same: your opening balance earns the full year, and each month's contribution starts earning from the following month. The rate for 2025-26 is 8.25%, ratified in June 2026. The 2026-27 rate isn't declared yet, so change the rate field to see a higher or lower one.
- Why isn't the EPS money in my corpus?
- Because it isn't yours to withdraw as a lump sum. The 8.33% that goes to EPS pays for a monthly pension from 58, worked out from your pensionable salary and years of service. The calculator shows how much went to EPS so you can see where your employer's 12% went, but only your EPF balance counts toward the corpus. EPS contributions stop at 58, and after that your employer's whole 12% goes into EPF.
- What if my employer pays 12% only on ₹25,000?
- Many employers limit their share to the wage ceiling when your basic + DA is higher. Pick "Up to ₹25,000" under "Employer's 12% is on" and the calculator caps your employer's share at ₹3,000 a month. Your own 12% stays on your full basic + DA. If you also contribute only on the ceiling, enter ₹25,000 as your basic + DA.
- Do I pay tax on my EPF?
- Mostly. EPF withdrawn after five years of continuous service is tax-free. But interest on your own contributions above ₹2.5 lakh a year (₹5 lakh if your employer doesn't contribute) is taxable each year, and so is an employer contribution above ₹7.5 lakh a year across EPF, NPS and superannuation. This calculator doesn't take tax off, so talk to a CA if you're near those limits.
- How accurate is the corpus figure?
- Treat it as a sensible guide, not a promise. It assumes the same interest rate every year, a steady pay rise, and that you stay in a job with EPF until you retire. Real life wobbles: rates change, raises come in jumps, and you may withdraw for a house or an emergency. Run it again each year with your new balance and you'll stay close.
- Is PF Calculator (EPF) free?
- Yes. It's free to use, with no sign-up and nothing to install.
