Dear Sumit,
EPF deduction is applicable on components like basic, DA, components equal to basic and DA, retaining allowance, personal pay for small family norms etc. Hence both the above postings are not exactly correct.
Abbas.P.S

The current scenario:
In Tamilnadu Trichy zone, the EPF office is advising employers to make deduction from their entire earning emoluments except HRA. If not so, the concern employers are liable for disciplinary action by EPF office.
Also, EPF Office insisting employers to implement this deduction (amendment) w.e.f.sep'14. If not, they are recovering penalty and interest for non deducted periods from the employers end.
So, the EPF deduction to be made from all emolument except HRA.
Hope it will make you some understanding.
