The process of making monthly Provident Fund (PF) payment is as follows:
1. Login to the Employer e-Sewa portal using your user ID and password.
2. Click on the ‘Payment’ tab and select ‘ECR Upload’ from the dropdown menu.
3. Enter the details of the employee’s salary, such as Basic Pay, Dearness Allowance, HRA, and other allowances.
4. After entering the details, generate the monthly ECR (Electronic Challan-cum-Return).
5. Verify the ECR summary and make the payment using the online payment gateway available on the portal.
6. Once the payment is successful, the ECR can be downloaded or printed for future reference.
It is important to note that the monthly PF payment must be made by the 15th of each month, failing which interest and penalties may be charged.
