How it works

You contribute 12% of your basic pay and dearness allowance to EPF every month. Your employer also contributes 12%, but 8.33% of wages up to ₹15,000 (at most ₹1,250 a month) goes to the pension scheme (EPS) instead of your EPF account.

Interest is worked out monthly on the running balance and credited once a year. EPFO declared 8.25% for FY 2025-26, the same as the two years before.

Questions

What is the EPF interest rate?

8.25% for FY 2025-26, notified by EPFO in July 2026.

Can I contribute more than 12%?

Yes, through the Voluntary Provident Fund (VPF). It earns the same rate; interest on your own contributions above ₹2.5 lakh a year is taxable.

Is the employer's pension share included?

No. The EPS share builds a pension, not your EPF balance, so the calculator leaves it out of the corpus.
