New Rule on PF Account from June 1



EPFO has taken a big decision regarding Provident Fund, as from June 1, 2021, employer has been given the responsibility to make your account Aadhaar verified. If they fail to do so can lead to the stoppage of employer contribution credited to your account. Therefore, it is important that you link your PF account with Aadhaar in time. UAN should also be Aadhaar verified.



EPFO has taken a new decision under section 142 of the Social Security Code 2020. EPFO has instructed the employer that after June 1, if any account is not linked with Aadhaar or UAN is not Aadhaar verified, then its ECR-Electronic Challan cum Return will not be filled. In such a situation, the employer's contribution to the PF account holders can also be stopped.


Also, if the accounts of PF account holders are not linked with Aadhaar, then they will not be able to use the services of EPFO.
