Employees' Provident Fund members have been waiting for a long time for the interest amount to be deposited in their accounts. A big update has been received from EPFO ​​for such customers. The interest money can reach the account of EPFO ​​​​members by July. For this, an official notification can be issued by the Finance Ministry soon.

Let us tell you that the Central Board of Trustees, the highest decision-making body of EPFO, approved the interest rate of 8.25% for FY 24 in February, but the formal notification is still awaited by the Finance Ministry. If sources are to be believed, it has been delayed due to the general elections. Now this work is likely to be completed by July.

How will you know if the money has arrived?
If you keep checking the passbook of your EPF account, you will know whether your EPF interest money has arrived or not. You can check the EPF passbook through the EPFO ​​​​Portal through facilities like Missed Call or SMS.
