Pf withdrawal query

I have searched this forum regards tax implications of PF  Withdrawl with NOT competing 5 years rule, could not get a clarafication, so by example I am trying to get a response, expert please comment.

(a)PF amount received 3,00,000/-

(b)Employers contribution: 140000/-

(c) Employees Contribution 160000/-

The assessee is in 30% tax bracket for his other regular income. So now whle calculating tax, should the entire amount (a) be added to his head 'income from other sources' and be taxed at 30% OR only (b) amount will be added to head 'Income from salary', AND portion (c) will not be added to any head, as its not taxable only interest generated from this contribution may be added to head 'other sources' (please correct is Employees contribution is taxable in this case) AND then the tax be calculated accordingly. 

Also how will the interest be caculated on employers and employees contribution OR how can I know as the EPFO does not issue any detaild statement regards interest breakup. Also for earlier years when this PF exemption was taken under 80C and tax savings was made, does one have to pay taxes for those years too?? If yes, how to calculate those taxes?

Employee's contribution is exempt. Interest thereon is taxable in income from other source. Employer contribution and interest there on is taxable in salary income profit in lieu of salary
