PF universal numbers

From October 15, employees will not have to apply for transfer of their provident fund ( PF) accounts while switching jobs anywhere in India.

The Employees' Provident Fund Organisation ( EPFO) is speeding up work on universal account numbers ( UANs) for subscribers. Employees now are allotted another PF account numbers when they switch companies.

Earlier, it used to take a while to get accounts transferred to new employers. Since EPFO switched over to online transfers in October 2013, this takes 30 days. This will become even faster with the UANs. Employees will merely need to update their new employee identity numbers provided by the new employers in their UANs when switching jobs and their accounts will be automatically shifted.

Once a UAN is allotted to an employee, he or she need not go through his or her employer to provide details to EPFO, unlike now. "There will be no need for an individual to go through the employer. This system will be employee- centric," Chief PF Commissioner K K Jalan told Business Standard.

However, companies would initially have to provide know your customer ( KYC) details of employees, EPFO said in a letter. KYC details include other identification numbers like Aadhaar, the population register number, savings bank accounts and the income- tax permanent account number ( PAN). The UAN would make settling claims easier as all key information would be available, Jalan said.

EPFO has asked its field officers to " impress upon employers that the Aadhaar / PNR must be seeded wherever available." According to an official, 70- 80 per cent employees covered by EPFO have Aadhaar/ NPR cards. EPFO, in its letter, has asked companies to use digital signatures, otherwise some of the services might not be available to their employees.

Avoid NFOs

  Don't get taken in by the flurry of new fund offers. You will be better off sticking to the tried and tested schemes.   For the past one year, to cash in on the bull run in equities, mutual fund houses have gone on a new fund offer (NFO) overdrive. But experts are unanimous in their advice: avoid NFOs . While past performance is not an indicator of how a fund will fare in the future, it does tell the investor how skilful the fund manager is. This crucial information is missing in an NFO. Not only is there no track record to judge an NFO by, many NFOs are similar to funds that already exist. If the new fund is similar to existing funds, you are better off investing in the latter. Around 67% of the new launches in 2014 were closed-end products. Investing in the NFO of a closed-end fund is doubly risky. In case the fund's performance is lacklustre, a closed-end fund does not allow you to exit. Even though closed-end funds are listed on the stock...

Common errors that couples make while investing

Most couples plan their strategies together but make mistakes while investing. Here’s how they can avoid the common errors Make no mistake. Ignorance is no longer bliss. In fact, many couples goof-up while investing together because they are not financially transparent to each other and don’t share a common goal. KEEPING SECRETS You may find questions from your spouse as an intrusion into your privacy, but financial planners believe that sharing financial details with each other is the first step that a couple takes towards their family financial goals. If you plan to invest together, then it’s important that you should be transparent to each other on the financial front. The whole idea is that you should be able to determine how much you will set aside for investments after making all the deductions for personal and household expenses. IMBALANCED APPROACH As a couple, you may have huge assets and hold stocks, but it’s important that you should direct a part of the investments for emer...

Debt Mutual Fund Dividends are Taxable

DDT is deducted when a non-equity fund declares dividends. Equity and balanced fund dividends are tax-free The AMC is correct to deduct the dividend distribution tax (DDT) as it is mandated by tax laws. DDT in mutual funds is deducted every time a non-equity fund declares dividends. Equity fund and balanced fund dividends are tax-free . It is possible that you have invested in a non-equity fund for the first time or have received the dividend under a non-equity fund for the first time. That is why this is the first occasion when you have come across DDT.   The rate at which non-equity schemes deduct DDT has also gone up after the July 2014 budget. This is due to a change in calculation methodology. Earlier, if the fund has to declare a dividend of R 100, it used to make a provision for R 128.3, paying R 28.3 to the taxman and distributing the balance to the investor. This allowed the investor to bear less tax since the effective tax rate was 22.07 per ce...
