How to check PF balance

Best SIP Funds to Invest Online 


As an employee whose provident gets deducted every month it is now not required to wait till the end of the year for the statement of your Employee Provident Fund provided by your employer. As a member of Employee' Provident Fund Organisation it is very easy to check PF balance statement anytime through online through app, EPFO portal, SMS or even as simple as giving a missed call.

Below are 4 different ways to check PF balance:

1. Using EPFO portal

Alternative to the unified PF portal, employees can now be able to access their Provident Fund statement on a different website managed by the EPFO. The unified portal is still a valid site to be used for any PF transfers.

It is necessary that your account has been tagged with the unique Universal Account Number (UAN). If it is done then it is very simple to download or print your statement from the website.

Step 1: The statement can be downloaded from the website www.epfindia.gov.in
Step 2: Go to 'For Employees' under 'Our Services'
Step 3: Click on 'Member Passbook' under 'Services'
Also, you can directly go to the page – https://passbook.epfindia.gov.in/MemberPassBook/Login.jsp 


Again, it is mandatory that the UAN is activated by the employer to access the statement. This facility is available only to members who are not exempted under the EPF scheme of 1952.

2. By sending an SMS

You can also check PF balance over an SMS. If your unique UAN number has been registered with EPFO, you can get details of your latest statement and the Provident Fund balance by sending an SMS text as "EPFOHO <UAN><ENG>" to 7738299899 where <ENG> is the first three characters of the preferred language. So, if you want to receive the message in Hindi, then type in EPFOHO UAN HIN.


This SMS facility is available in Hindi, Tamil, Punjabi, Malayalam, English, Marathi, Telugu, Gujarati, Kannada and Bengali. EPFO can only send details of members available with it. So, make sure your UAN is seeded with your bank account, Aadhaar and PAN, else ask your employer to seed them for you.


3. By giving a missed call

Now a missed call to 011-22901406 from your registered mobile number can provide you the current statement of your PF account provided your UAN and the registered mobile number is seeded to the UAN portal and your UAN is having a registered valid account number, Aadhar Number and PAN. You can ask your Employer to do so if it is not already done.

4. By using the EPFO app

You can download the m-sewa app of EPFO and then navigate to "Member" and then to "Balance/Passbook". You can provide the details of the UAN number and registered mobile number to get the updated EPF statement.

NPS for Tax Saving

The NPS is a great way to save tax if you don't mind locking in your money till you retire. Till last year, the taxability of the NPS was a big issue. But last year's Budget changed the rules and made 40% of the corpus tax free. The PFRDA wants that the balance 60% to be exempt from tax as well. The emphasis is on increasing pension coverage. So, allowing EEE status (to NPS ) is our major demand (in the Budget NPS is especially useful for investors who may have exhausted the `1.5 lakh investment limit under Section 80C but want to save more.   Another way the NPS can cut tax is by rejigging the salary.If a company deposits up to 10% of the basic salary of an employee in the NPS under Section 80CCD(2d), the amount will be tax free. Turn to page 28 to see how much tax this can save. However, the take-home pay of the employee will come down. Invest Rs 1,50,000 and Save Tax upto Rs 46,350 under Section 80C.

Retirement planning from a long-term perspective

Invest In Tax Saving Mutual Funds Online Download Tax Saving Mutual Fund Application Forms Buy Gold Mutual Funds     `HOW green was my valley'. This title comes from a movie I had watched many years ago. A little boy's journey into adulthood and the story of a Welsh valley's turn of-the-century descent from pristine paradise to despoiled coal mining.   I thought of the title because it is comparatively reflective of a person's life ­ the glorious years when he is earning and the sun down years when he is not having his regular job and, hence, his living standards comes down. The reason is a combination of things. Inflation of food items, transport, increase in health related costs in the later years of life and increase in expenses in almost all basic amenities of life. In India, the social security system is almost non-existent. In some states, wherever it is available, the scales of benefits are extremely modest...

BANK FDs for Tax Saving

This is probably the easiest way to save tax if you have a Netbanking account . After the demonetisation and the digital push, almost everyone has one. A few clicks of the mouse and your tax planning is done. However, as mentioned earlier, this convenience comes at a very high cost. Interest rates have come down significantly and are close to 7-7.5% right now. The bigger problem is that the interest is fully taxable. It is added to the income of the investor and taxed at the marginal rate applicable to him. In the highest 30% tax bracket , the post-tax yield is close to 5%. Even so, tax-saving fixed deposits are suitable for risk averse investors, especially senior citizens who might already have hit the ` 15 lakh ceiling in the Senior Citizens' Saving Scheme and don't want to lock in money for the long term in a PPF account . Though NSCs offer higher rates than most banks, many senior citizens prefer to invest in deposits of their own banks, because they get better service ...
