It is applicable to all class of establishments covered under the EPF & MP Act, 1952 except the establishments like Central and State Public sector enterprises or any other establishments owned or controlled of the Central govt or State govt.The reduced rate is also not applicable to establishments eligible for PMGKY benefits, since the entire employees EPF contributions (12% of wages) and employers’ EPF & EPS contribution (12% of wages), totalling 24% of the monthly wages is being contributed by the Central govt.
As a result of reduction in statutory rate of contributions from 12% to 10%, the employee shall have a higher take-home pay due to reduction in deduction from his pay on account of EPF contributions and employer shall also have his liability reduced by 2% wages of his employees.
