EPF Marriage Loan

 

EPF is considered to be one of the safest investment products by salaried individuals and every month they make a contribution of fixed percentage of their salary towards EPF. Although it is considered one of the retirement options, many a times due to unforeseen circumstances the need of money might arise. But not many of us are aware that withdrawing fund from EPF account can also be a solution to meet your financial requirement at the time of need.

Employee provident fund organization allows premature withdrawal and also provides loan facility to its subscribers. However there are certain terms and conditions under which you can opt for the advance. So here we will discuss the details of EPF loan for marriage/wedding.

Partial withdrawal can be made for own's marriage or his/her son or daughter, brother or sister. You can now gift Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima (PMSBY) and Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana (PMJJBY) through gift cheque under Jeevan Suraksha Bandhan Yojana.
