The government has made a big change in the rules of EPF. The government has increased the limit of withdrawing cash from EPF at one time so that people can easily withdraw money.

Facility to withdraw money from PF within the first six months of job

Apart from this, the government has made another important change. Now you can withdraw money from your PF even within the first six months of joining the job. Earlier this rule was not there. These changes can be very beneficial for you.

Some companies may run private retirement plans

The government has made another important change. Now some companies which are not part of the EPF can join this state-run retirement fund manager. Some companies can run their own private retirement plans as they are exempted because these funds were set up before the EPF was set up in 1954.

The Labour Minister said, “There are 17 companies which have a total of 100,000 employees and a corpus of Rs 1,000 crore. If they want to join EPF instead of their own fund, they will be allowed to do so. Government PF savings give better and stable returns.”

EPF (PF Balance Check) i.e. Employee Provident Fund secures the future of millions of employees. It provides retirement pension to crores of employees working in the organized sector. For many employees, it is the main source of lifetime savings. For this financial year 2024, the interest rate of EPF (EPF Interest Rate 2024) has been fixed at 8.25%.
