Both employee and employer put money in EPF account
Under the EPFO Act, 12% of the basic salary plus DA of the employee goes to the EPF account. So at the same time, the employer (company) also contributes 12% of the basic salary plus DA of the employee. Out of the 12% contribution of the company, 3.67% goes to the PF account of the employee and the remaining 8.33% goes to the employee pension scheme. The EPF account is getting 8.50% interest annually.

With the help of this number, the facilities of EPFO can be used online.
