Pensionable salary is the average of last 12 months salary of which Employer has contributed to EPS @8.33%. Again salary may be different from the salary you draw. As per EPF Scheme, the highest salary for which employer has to remit contributions to EPF is 6500/-. That is, employer has to remit 8.33% of actual salary or of Rs. 6500/- whichever is minimum. That is, evenif your salary is 20,000 per month, your employer need to contribute to EPF as if your salary is 6500/-.
