  • PF Withdrawal Limit Change: Govt increases PF withdrawal limit to ₹1 lakh. Check Details Here

    Union Labour Minister Mansukh Mandaviya on Tuesday at a press briefing highlighted that the Employees’ Provident Funds Organisation had increased the PF withdrawal limit in April this year.

    The subscribers are now eligible to withdraw up to Rs 1 lakh at a time, a raise from the earlier limit of Rs 50,000.

    – Advertisement –

    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. Now you can withdraw more money from your PF account during an emergency (EPF Bank Account Update). Now you can withdraw up to one lakh rupees instead of Rs 50,000. Labor Minister Mansukh Mandaviya gave this information on Tuesday.

    He said that this change will be a relief for those who need to withdraw money from their PF account for marriage, treatment or other necessary expenses.

    You will be able to easily withdraw more money from your PF

    Many times people need money suddenly, like for an illness or for building a house. That is why the Employees Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) has taken this decision. Now you will easily get money from EPFO ​​when you need more money. Earlier you could withdraw only up to Rs 50,000. But now you can withdraw up to one lakh rupees. Now you will not have to wait long to withdraw more money from your PF (PF Account Balance withdrawal) in case of an emergency.

    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%.

    Hyundai Alcazar Facelift Launches Today with New Features and Distinct Identity

    Hyundai Motor India Ltd’s flagship three-row SUV, the Alcazar, is set to receive a significant facelift as it hits the market today (September 9). Often viewed as a ‘stretched’ version of the Creta, the Alcazar has struggled to establish its own identity. With this facelift, Hyundai aims to give the Alcazar a unique character, distinguishing it from its sibling models.

    What’s new in the 2024 Hyundai Alcazar?

    The latest version introduces dual-zone climate control and digital key access, allowing users to lock and unlock the SUV via smartphones or smartwatches, adding a modern, tech-savvy convenience to the driving experience.

    The updated Hyundai Alcazar seamlessly integrates advanced technology with a suite of new features, including a connected infotainment and cluster system, embedded voice recognition, and dual-zone automatic temperature control (DATC). These enhancements ensure a tech-forward, connected experience for both drivers and passengers.

    Available Variants and Colour Options

    The facelifted Alcazar will be available in four variants: Executive, Prestige, Platinum, and Signature. Hyundai has expanded the SUV’s colour options, offering nine exterior shades, including new hues like Robust Emerald Matte, Ranger Khaki, and Titan Grey Matte. These choices provide buyers with greater flexibility to personalise their vehicles.

    Engine Options

    The 2024 Alcazar continues to offer two engine options. The 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine produces 158 bhp and 253 Nm of torque, with choices between a six-speed manual and a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. The 1.5-litre U2 CRDi diesel engine delivers 113 bhp and 250 Nm of torque, available with a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic transmission.

    Exterior Design and Styling

    The facelifted Alcazar features several design upgrades, including a dark chrome radiator grille for a sleek look, quad-beam LED headlamps, sequential LED turn signals, and diamond-cut alloy wheels that enhance the SUV’s modern appeal. Additional features like bridge-type roof rails and LED tail lamps add both style and functionality, while the horizon LED positioning lamps and H-shaped daytime running lights (DRLs) provide a futuristic touch.

    Interior Comfort and Enhancements

    Inside, the Alcazar offers a premium atmosphere with dual-tone interiors in noble brown and haze navy. Comfort features include ventilated seats for the first and second rows, 8-way power-adjustable driver and passenger seats, and a wireless charger for both rows. The six-seater variant also features second-row captain seats with a seat-mounted armrest and thigh cushion extension for added comfort. New horizontal AC vents and ambient lighting contribute to a luxurious feel, while memory seats with a welcome retract feature add convenience.

    Design Enhancements Noted During Testing

    Spy images from recent testing reveal several design updates for the facelifted Alcazar. These include a refreshed front fascia, a redesigned dual-tone grille, and an upgraded LED headlight setup with new daytime running lights (DRLs). Although the overall road presence remains similar to the current model, these enhancements contribute to a more striking and refined appearance.

    Will the New Alcazar Feature ADAS?

    The facelifted Alcazar will include advanced features such as front-ventilated seats, a panoramic sunroof, a 360-degree camera with dynamic guidelines, and Hyundai’s Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). These additions aim to enhance both comfort and safety on the road.

    Current Price of the Alcazar

    The 2024 Hyundai Alcazar is available in both six-seater and seven-seater configurations. The existing Alcazar, which has been on sale since 2021, is priced between Rs 16.77 lakh and Rs 21.28 lakh (ex-showroom). The facelifted model is expected to be priced at approximately Rs 50,000 higher, reflecting the new design and feature updates.
