Death Insurance Cover
This Employee Deposit Linked Scheme of EPFO ​​is a special type of death insurance cover. Although no one wants to take advantage of this scheme, but in case of emergency, it proves to be very helpful. Under this scheme, in case of unfortunate death of the PF account holder, the amount is paid to the registered nominee.

Under this scheme, a lump sum payment of Rs 2 lakh is made to the EPFO ​​member. At the same time, a maximum of Rs 7 lakh is paid under this scheme. This amount is given to the registered nominee.

In case the nominee is not registered,
if suppose the employee has not registered any nominee under the EDLI scheme. In this situation, full coverage is available to the employee’s spouse or his/her son/daughter. However, the minimum age of the claimant must be 18 years.

From a protective point of view, every PF member should also get e-nomination in his PF account done at the earliest, so that in your absence, the nominee does not face any problems while availing the insurance cover.
