Why PF Returns Get Filed Late
Most late PF filings are avoidable. They usually come down to a few common gaps.
ECR due date simply forgotten
EPF and EPS split calculated incorrectly against the wage ceiling
UAN or employee details mismatched, causing rejection
Challan generated but payment not completed in time
Elixir Filings tracks your monthly deadline and validates your ECR before upload, so nothing is rejected or late.

Protect employee retirement savings
Timely, accurate contributions ensure employees' PF accounts grow as they should.
Avoid interest and damages
Late payment attracts interest under Section 7Q and damages under Section 14B, both real costs.
Correct EPF and EPS split, every time
The wage ceiling calculation for EPS is a common error we catch before filing.

01
PF Return Filing
PF return filing means submitting the Electronic Challan cum Return, or ECR, to EPFO every month, combining your return and payment in a single workflow. Both employer and employee contribute 12 percent of basic wages plus dearness allowance, with the employer's share split into 3.67 percent EPF, 8.33 percent EPS, capped at a wage of Rs. 15,000, and 0.5 percent EDLI. The ECR is due by the 15th of the following month. Elixir Filings manages this filing every month, so nothing is ever late or rejected.

Our professional fee is charged per month and depends on your employee count. There is no government fee for PF return filing itself, so this covers the full cost.

Your PF establishment ID, monthly payroll data with UAN numbers, employee KYC status, and your salary structure showing basic pay and dearness allowance clearly split.

We file before the 15th of every month, once we receive your payroll data, with full ECR validation completed well ahead of the statutory deadline each time.
Does Elixir Filings handle PF nil returns?
