Thank you for your response. I would like to inquire about the amount an employee's nominee would receive under the EDLI scheme if the employee had completed 18 years of service, was 51 years old at the time of passing, and died. Could you please provide me with the calculation formula for EDLI? Our company has decided to offer an additional amount under EDLI to the nominee, in addition to the EPF/EPS benefits.

Thank you in advance.

Dear Mr. Rajesh Waghmare,

EDLI is the abbreviation of the 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 file a claim, the employer must pay 0.5% as the premium.

1. Determination of Deposit:

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

2. Determination of Compensation:

Up to Rs. 50,000, the family will receive the actual amount. Beyond the first Rs. 50,000, they will receive 40% of the remaining amount, subject to a ceiling of Rs. 100,000.

Example a) Deposit Rs. 100,000:

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

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

Example b) Deposit Rs. 200,000:

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

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

Example c) Deposit Rs. 300,000:

- For the first Rs. 50,000 - Rs. 50,000
- For the 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. Some organizations are exempted from EDLI and provide better benefits instead. There are schemes that specify amounts exceeding Rs. 100,000 for natural death and offer double benefits for accidental death.
