Estimate your EPF / PF retirement corpus

Enter your assumptions, then select Calculate.

Projection follows an EPFO-style monthly-running-balance convention: a contribution begins earning interest from the succeeding month, with modeled interest credited annually. Actual EPFO passbook amounts can differ because of payroll credit dates, financial-year boundaries, withdrawals, rounding and the rate declared for each year.

Assumptions and limitations

EPFO documents employee contributions generally at 12% (10% for specified establishments), employer contribution split between EPF and EPS, and an EPS/statutory wage ceiling of ₹15,000 in standard cases. The calculator keeps rates editable because individual payroll treatment can differ.

Method and source references

Method/rule references: Employees' Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) contribution-rate guidance and current EPF interest declarations/recommendations; numerical methodology independently tested by MoneyInNumbers.
