EPF: WHEN WILL INTEREST BE CREDITED, SUBSCRIBERS QUIZZED EPFO IN ONLINE QUIZ
Employees Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) ran a quiz for its social media followers on ‘X’ platform and tempted them into participating by offering a certificate of appreciation. Some subscribers — instead of answering the questions — queried the agency when the interest for FY 2023-24 be credited.
The agency responded by saying that the process is in the pipeline and may be shown shortly. The EPFO also said that whenever the interest will be credited, it will be accumulated and paid in full without any loss of interest.
The subscriber further called this reply as ‘standard’ reply which is sent every year.
He is not alone. There are others also who asked when the interest of 2023-24 be credited.
