This happens every year. EPF body takes 5-6 months to credit the interest for previous. Although, there is no financial loss to individual because the entries are posted later on past date but mental agony of not finding it for 5 -6 months is there. Even in the era of digitisation where such calculation can happen in a click of a button , it’s difficult to understand the reason other than the red tape of the Govt organisation

I tried the EPFO page in facebook to get details of when they are crediting interest.

Dear Sir,
The software for updating interest is under development and testing and it will be available soon. However if you prefer a claim the same will be settled with up to date interest.

I think Software is under development. Once development is over then Trump will be called for inaugurations. And then PM will run the Schedule job to calculate the interest. looks to me in next century, interest will get credited.

As stated in this document until the Testing of the new software development is done no Annual Accounts Processing (For us it is crediting annual interest) will be done. and only God knows when it will be done (after all it's Govt project).
Finger crossed.

PF interest credit to our account is only a number that shows up in the PF passbook. They had responded back to me mentioning that they are upgrading their systems and due to technical glitches they are unable to credit the due amount into individual accounts.
For the ones who are withdrawing it, the interest will get added to their account for FY17-18 and hence no need to worry.
Hope this helps.

Today 2nd August 2018!
I still do not see the EPF interest credited on my passbook!!!
It’s been 5 months already and seems no one from the govt or EPFO has come forward to address the genuine concern from working class.
This is absolute pathetic state of affairs !!
Regardless of the system updation - what’s taking so long to add the entry into passbook !!
