Life insurance benefits for Pension Fund employees have increased to Rs.1 lakh under the Deposit-linked Insurance Scheme (EDLI).

The EDLI Scheme has been amended. In the event of death during employment, the family member/nominee will receive the following:

- If the average balance is more than Rs.50,000, then the insurance amount will be Rs.50,000 plus 40% of the excess, up to a maximum of Rs.1,00,000.

EDLI is the abbreviation of Employees' Deposit Linked Insurance Scheme. Here, deposit means the average deposit in EPF. When an employee dies while in service, the family will receive some compensation based on his/her deposit. To claim, the employer has to pay 0.5% as its premium.

Determination of Deposit:

The average deposit of the last twelve months as well as total service will be calculated, and whichever is less will be taken for the calculation.

Determination of Compensation:

Up to Rs. 50,000/-, he will receive the actual amount. Beyond the first Rs. 50,000, he will get 40% of the rest; subject to a ceiling of Rs. 100,000/-.

Examples:

a) Deposit Rs. 100,000

For the first Rs. 50,000 - Rs. 50,000, Next Rs. 50,000 - Rs. 20,000

Total - Rs. 70,000 (will receive the full amount as it does not exceed Rs. 100,000).

b) Deposit Rs. 200,000

For the first Rs. 50,000 - Rs. 50,000, Next Rs. 150,000 - Rs. 60,000

Total - Rs. 110,000 (will receive Rs. 100,000 only as it exceeds Rs. 100,000).

c) Deposit Rs. 300,000

For the first Rs. 50,000 - Rs. 50,000, Next Rs. 250,000 - Rs. 100,000

Total - Rs. 150,000 (will receive Rs. 100,000 only as it exceeds Rs. 100,000/-).

However, there are better insurance schemes with the same premium, even without considering the deposits. With these better benefits, some organizations are exempted from EDLI. Instead, they provide alternatives to EDLI. There are schemes that specify more than Rs. 100,000/- for natural death and double benefits for accidental death.

Hello Everybody,

Please update as EDLI Death Benefit is increased to ₹1,30,000/- maximum. If somebody had earned a maximum wage of ₹6500 for the last twelve months multiplied by twenty or the average twelve months' wage multiplied by twenty but not more than ₹1,30,000/- in any case. Please refer to "The Gazette of India" Extraordinary Part - II - Section 3 - Subsection (i) dated January 8, 2011 (No.8).
