What is the EPF Calculator?

An EPF calculator estimates how much will be in your Employees’ Provident Fund account when you retire. Enter your monthly basic salary plus dearness allowance, your age, the age you plan to retire at, your current EPF balance and the raise you expect each year, and it projects the corpus year by year — what you put in, what your employer puts in and how much interest the fund earns on top.

It follows the EPFO rules most salaried employees are under. You contribute 12% of basic plus DA. Your employer also contributes 12%, but 8.33% of wages up to ₹15,000 — at most ₹1,250 a month — goes to the Employees’ Pension Scheme rather than your EPF account, so the calculator only counts the rest. Interest is worked out monthly on the running balance and credited at the end of each year, the way EPFO does it. Nothing you enter leaves your browser.

How to use it

  1. Enter your monthly basic salary plus DA (from your payslip, not your CTC).
  2. Enter your current age and the age you expect to retire at — 58 by default.
  3. Add your current EPF balance from the EPFO passbook, if you have one.
  4. Set the yearly raise you expect and, if it changes, the EPF interest rate.
  5. Read your corpus at retirement and the year-by-year balances; press Copy for a summary.

Frequently asked questions

How much of my salary goes to EPF?
You contribute 12% of basic salary plus DA, all of it into EPF. Your employer contributes another 12%, of which 8.33% of wages (capped at ₹15,000, so ₹1,250 a month at most) goes to the Employees’ Pension Scheme and the rest into your EPF. On a basic of ₹30,000 that is ₹3,600 from you and ₹2,350 from your employer into EPF each month.
What is the current EPF interest rate?
EPFO declared 8.25% for 2024-25 and retained it for 2025-26. The rate is set each year, so the projection assumes today’s rate holds for every future year. Change the rate field to see how a higher or lower rate changes the corpus.
Is the EPS pension included in the corpus?
No. The part of your employer’s contribution that goes to the Employees’ Pension Scheme does not earn interest in your account and is not paid out as a lump sum; it entitles you to a monthly pension after 58 if you complete ten years of service. The calculator shows how much went to EPS separately.
Is EPF withdrawal at retirement taxed?
Withdrawals after five years of continuous service are tax-free. Interest on employee contributions above ₹2.5 lakh a year (₹5 lakh where the employer does not contribute) is taxable each year, which affects only high earners.
