EPF on actual wage basis? Know the impact
Effective from September 17, 2026, the wage ceiling limit for employee provident fund (EPF) contributions will increase from Rs 15,000 to Rs 25,000 per month. This new limit will have a significant impact on employees who were previously contributing at the lower limit or not contributing at all. Those already contributing based on their actual wage are likely to experience minimal impact, but EPS (Employee Pension Scheme) members joining before 2014 might see an increase in their employer's contribution.
