Answer
# 1
PF : Provident fund is calculated @ 12% on the basic 
salary, which indeed is deducted from Employee's salary and 
the same plus 12% on the basic is contributed by the 
employer. So the aggreate 12% + 12% is remitted to the 
Provident fund Department

ESI : Employee State Insurance is calculated at 1.75% on 
the gross salary of the employees whose salary is below Rs. 
10000/-permonth (w.e.f 2008) and Employer contributes 4.75% 
on the gross salary of the employee and the agreegate 1.75% 
+ 4.75% is remitted to the ESI Department

VAT  : VAT percentage is 1, 4, 12.5%. It is a tax which is 
charged on the basic value of the product by the seller 
from the buyer and the same is remitted to the Sales Tax 
Departement. for eg if the product value is Rs. 100 and the 
tax applicable is 4%, in such case a bill is raised for Rs. 
104.

PF : Provident fund is calculated @ 12% on the basic 
salary+DA+Food Allowence+Cash Allowence (Upto Rs.6,500/-and 
above of the limit, Company can decide), which indeed is 
deducted from Employee's salary and deposit in PF A/c No.1 
and the same plus 12% on the basic is contributed by the 
employer and deposit 3.67% in the A/c No.1 and remaining 
8.33% in A/c No.10 of Pension fund (which is calculated on 
the maximum limit of PF Rs.6500/-). So the aggreate 12% + 
12% is remitted to the Provident fund Department

ESI : Employee State Insurance is calculated at 1.75% on 
the gross salary of the employees whose salary is below Rs. 
10000/-permonth (w.e.f 2008) and Employer contributes 4.75%

Answer

VAT  : VAT percentage has been changed in terms of 
VAT+Additional VAT. ie. Vat 4%+Additional Vat1%=5%, 
Vat12.50%+Additional Vat 2.5%=15%,Vat 15%+Additional 
Vat2.5%. And the product Value is MRP, that meanse the rate 
is inclussive of all taxes. If the product Value is 100 MRP 
and Vat Rate is 5%, then the nit rate will be 95.24 + 5% 
Vat.
If the Product value is not MRP, you can raise the bill for 
Rs.105. is 100+5% vat

And Vat is applicable only in Inter State Sales and for 
Sale to Outside States CST (Central Sales Tax ie. @%) is 
applicable.

ASSUME THAT PRICE OF AN ARTICLE IS 100. VAT RATE IS 4% SO
TOTAL VALUE WOULD BE 104. NOW WHAT WILL BE THE PRICE OF AN
ARTICLE WHOSE TOTAL VALUE IS 5000. 
CALCULATION:
104    4
5000    ?  =  5000*4/104= 192 WOULD BE VAT AND REMAINING
WOULD BE COST PRICE OR SELLING PRICE WITHOUT VAT. IT WOULD
BE 4808.  
ASSUMPTION:
1. THERE IS NO EXCISE AND ANY OTHER TAX IS APPLICABLE.
