Hi,

Benefits:

EPF (Employee Provident Fund)

The EPF amount of both EE & ER will be repaid on completion of the service period along with the interest. Any claims of EPF will not attract Income Tax, which requires a minimum of 5 years of contribution. Any amount that was fully claimed before 5 years will have a 10% TDS.

EPF amount shall be claimed partially under the following conditions:

- Marriage Expenditure
- Educational Expenditure
- Medical emergencies
- Purchase or construction of a house
- Repayment of a housing loan
- Purchase of a plot
- Lockout

EPS (Employee Pension Scheme)

All employees who complete the contribution to EPF for 10 years or more will receive a monthly pension amount. If an employee does not complete the 10 years of service, the amount shall be withdrawn along with the EPF amount.

EDLI (Employee Depository Linked Insurance)

For all EPF members, the company has to pay an Insurance amount of 0.5% of the EPF wages. It is calculated under the admin charges. The EDLI amount will be paid upon the death of an employee who is in service.

The total Insurance amount that can be claimed is Rs. 6,00,000/-.

Mr. Bhagat, Yes, the family member / any nominee other than family member (if employee is not married) can claim EDLI on the event of death of the employee only. sarisri
