The EPF is created by the Employees Provident Fund Organization (EPFO) of India, a statutory body of the Indian Government under the Labor and Employment Ministry. It states that an organization having 20 or more permanent employees on its payroll, should register with the EPFO.

A Provident Fund is a fund that is created, through contributions, to provide financial support to individuals in their future (Specifically for post-retirement). The Employee Provident Fund is just such a fund. Contributions are made on a monthly basis, by both employees and employers, thereby encouraging employees to save a portion of their salary each month. Investments made by millions of employees across India are pooled together and invested by a trust.

The EPF is a tax free investment instrument for the salaried class. Interest earned on it is tax free, and returns are also not taxed. You also get a deduction under Section 80C for contributions made towards your EPF.

There is no way to do that. The government of India gives more importance to Delhi as it is the capital and did not bother to put the other states on it's PF site for us to view our Balance. The Bandra EPF office is not even worthy to be called a PF office. They are sleeping all the time and need to fired from their jobs Asap. Throw them out of the office. They don't know how to do the work. They are really burden to the government who are working there.
