The Ministry of Labor said, it has been decided to take an additional contribution of 1.16 percent out of the total 12 percent contribution of the employers in the provident fund.

At present, the government pays 1.16 per cent of the basic salary up to Rs 15,000 as subsidy for contribution to the Employees’ Pension Scheme (EPS). This provision is retrospective as per the orders given by the Supreme Court, that is, it is applicable from the previous date. Meaning, this provision will come into effect from September 1, 2014, which is the cut-off date as per the Supreme Court order, i.e. employer’s contribution of 12% plus 1.16% will be deducted from the employee’s PF fund retrospectively.

So far more than 12 lakh applications have been received, if you also want that after retirement you get more pension every month, then you can opt for EPS-95. For this, you have to apply on the Integrated Member Portal of EPFO. EPFO has so far received more than 12 lakh applications for higher pension.
