EPFO has started depositing the interest for the financial year 2020-21 in the account of PF account holders. Money has started arriving in about 6.5 crore PF accounts of the country. In such a situation, all the account holders are checking their PF account to see how much money came into their account. It is worth noting that the government had already given green signal to the proposal to transfer 8.5 percent interest on PF for the financial year 2020-21. The Laboor Ministry had also given its consent to this decision. Now EPFO is depositing 8.5 per cent interest in the accounts of the subscribers.
You do not need to worry to check interest money in EPFO. There are several ways to check whether the interest amount has been credited to your account. Information about the transfer of interest from EPFO is given to every subscriber through SMS. But, you can easily get the balance information in the account by sending a message yourself. You just have to type 'EPFOHO UAN ENG' on your mobile phone and send it to 7738299899. The last three characters of the message are for the language.
If you want to take your account information in Hindi, then you can send it by writing 'EPFOHO UAN HIN'. But account holders have to keep in mind that this message has to be sent from the registered mobile number only. Apart from this, you can also get information from your registered mobile number by giving a missed call on 011-22901406. After this, you will get a message from EPFO in which you will get the details of your PF account.
