PF Transfer - Issues / Challenges
 

Employees can face several issues/ challenges when transferring the PF into IBM or to the
new employer. Some of the common reasons are listed here.

1) PF for IBM employees is managed by the EPFO whereas some companies also manage the
fund through dedicated Trusts they have set up (Ex: Infosys, TCS, HCL). In such scenarios,
the process may be delayed during the processing time required to complete the transfer
between EPFO and Trusts. 

Resolution: None. Dependency with EPFO.

2) Errors in the EPFO portal due to data inconsistency. Ex: Name mismatch between Aadhar
and EPFO. 

Resolution: Name, DOB, Gender listed in Aadhar should match with EPFO website and
Bank Account. If the information in Aadhar is correct you can update EPFO website and/or
contact your bank to update the information. If data in Aadhar is incorrect then update
Aadhar by visiting the nearest Aadhar center.

Recovery FAQ's
If your final settlement turns out to be a recovery, then the recovery amount will be shown on
the Earnings section under the heading "Adv agnst neg sal" (Advance against negative
salary). 
For a breakup of deductions / recovery components please check the deductions section and
any negative value components in the earnings section.

For a more detailed article about payslip refer to this link - understanding the payslip.

Example:

Frequently Asked Questions


1) How is "Adv agnst neg sal" component calculated?

Adv agnst neg sal = Sum of all components in your earnings section (except the adv agnst
neg sal component) - sum of all components in the deduction section

2) Notice period recovery

2a) How is notice period recovery calculated?

( Monthly basic/ 30 ) * unserved days of notice period

2b) Why is notice period deduction included in my FFS?

Notice period is recovered based on manager inputs. The decision by your manager to waive
or recover any unserved notice period was shared with you in the checklist sent post
acceptance of your resignation. Please contact your manager if you are not in agreement with
the recovery.

3) Leave encashment

3a) Why is my leave encashment amount less?


Privilege leave accrues at the rate of 0.06 days per day of active service. Therefore for
separating employees the leaves are prorated and rounded off based on the number of days of
service in the year.

Ex: If an had joined IBM on 01-01-2015 and is separating with an effective date of separation
of 02-10-2018, then he/she would have accrued 16.5 days of privilege leave for the 275 days
of active service in 2018.

Refer to this article for more details - Vacation / Privilege leave

3b) What is leave balance recovery or negative leave balance?

Excess leaves availed is recovered in final settlement. 

4) What is reimbursement recovery?

There are different scenarios that can lead to a reimbursement recovery. Below are a few of
the common ones - 

 Recovery of unapproved claims submitted


 Recovery of duplicate claims submitted
 Recovery of relocation expenses

5) Why am I receiving the final settlement payslip with the pay period as current
month, when I resigned in a previous month?

Pay period is based on the month final settlement is processed in the HR system. FFS was
processed only in the current month hence the pay period is mentioned as the current month.

6) When can I get my experience letter after making the payment? 


The relieving and experience letters will be issued within 3 working days of confirmation of
the amount being credited in the bank statement.

7) What will happen if I don’t make the payment? or Can I make the payment at a later
date?

If you don't make the payment or if you delay the payment, the relieving and experience
letters will not be issued. Any background verification requests received will be rejected.

 
8) Who can waive off any of the recovery components?

Managers can waive off any of the recovery component with upline approval. Please reach
out to your manager so that he/she can begin the waiver process.

Payment options:
IBM does not accept cash or cheque payments. Please make online payment using NEFT
only to this primary account. 

Beneficiary name: IBM India Pvt Ltd

Account number: 119000HRRECOVERY

IFSC code: HSBC0560002

Bank name: HSBC Bank

Branch name: Dikenson road

Branch address: #7, MG Road, Bangalore - 560001

MICR code: 560039002

Account type: Current account

Why should I provide the screenshot of transaction?

The screenshot of transaction with the reference number is required for us to track the credit
in IBM Bank statement. Without this we would not be able to confirm on payment or close
the recovery due.

My bank doesn’t allow the whole amount to be transferred in 1 day. Can I do payment
in two transactions in two days

Yes. You can do multiple transfers. But please be sure to share the payment screen shots of
all the transaction.
Vacation / Privilege Leave (PL)
All regular employees are eligible for 22 days of Vacation (PL) every calendar year. The 22
days are credited to employees in advance at the start of the year. Vacation Leave (PL)
accrues at the rate of 0.06 days per day of active service. Therefore for separating employees
the leaves are prorated and rounded off based on the number of days of service in the year.

Ex: If an had joined IBM on 01-01-2015 and is separating with an effective date of separation
of 02-10-2018, then he/she would have accrued 16.5 days of Vacation Leave (PL) for the 275
days of active service in 2018.

If employee has not availed all the accrued Vacation Leave (PL) in the calendar year, then the
unused Vacation Leave (PL) is en-cashed at the at the time of separation/ retirement.

Encashment amount = (Monthly basic salary/22) x number of days to be en-cashed

If PL in excess of accrued leaves is availed by the employee then the same is recovered in the
final settlement.

Additional information:

 For the period when the employee works part-time, Vacation Leave (PL) eligibility is
prorated.
 Company holidays and sick leave (if raised and requested) during the Vacation Leave (PL) is
not deducted from the Vacation Leave (PL) balance.
 Any leave balance carried forward can also be en-cashed if it is unused.
Understanding the payslip
One of the most common queries received from employees are about requests to help them
understand the final settlement payslip better. Though the format of the payslip is the same as
when you were an active employee, some of the components can be confusing. We will
continue to update the content in this page based on your feedback.

There are 11 different sections in the payslip.

Section 1 - 4: Employee profile information

1. Name : Employee First and Last name as per HR records.


2. Emp No : 6 digit IBM employee id.

11. Bank name : The bank name declared by employee on HRMS/ Workday

Section 5: Earning details

This section provides a list of the earnings. Ex: Basic salary, House Rent allowance, Shift
allowance, Flat allowance etc. If any component has the prefix "Retro", then this payment is
for the previous month where the salary was not processed. Here are a few samples of the
earning sections of the payslip.

If there are any component in this section with a negative sign then these components are
deductions. Deductions are sometimes shown in the earnings side when there is a recovery
against a component which is/was an earning. Ex: Excess salary paid, Relocation allowance
recovery etc.
 

Section 6: Deduction details

Deductions like professional tax (Prof Tax), employee PF contribution (Ee PF contribution)
and other recovery components like notice period recovery etc are listed in this section. 

If there are any component in this section with a negative sign then these components are
non-taxable payments or adjustment entries.
 

Section 7:

1. Any other income : Tax exempted amount towards housing loan for the financial year.
2. Exemption u/s 10 : Total of all exemptions received under section 10 for the financial year.
