    Overview

    EPF is one of the major platforms of saving funds in India for nearly all individuals working in Government, Private or Public companies. It is managed and regulated by Employees Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952. Employees’ Provident Fund(EPF) is a government savings scheme with a motive of helping out the employees to save their small portion of their salary for future needs. Each organization has to provide its employees with an Employee Provident Fund(EPF) which is akin to the retirement fund.

    Companies that have 20 or more employees are required to register with the Provident Fund (PF) department. The strength of 20 includes contract employees like housekeeping, security or other workers in the business. Even those companies which don’t have the strength of 20 employees but they want to provide provident fund advantages to their employees can also apply for voluntary registration with Regional Provident Fund Office. Registration must be done one month from the date of employing 20 workers.
