New Delhi : The central government is now once again going to open the treasury box for PM employees, which will benefit more than 6 crore people. The government is now soon going to travel the PF money to the employees’ account, for which they are eagerly waiting.
It is believed that EPFO, which deducts PF, will put interest money in the account by August 31. The EPFO has not yet officially announced the date of transfer of interest money to the account, but in some media reports such a claim is being made on a large scale.
For information, let us tell you that the Central Government has announced to give 8.1 percent interest for the financial year 2021-22. This is the first time in 40 years that such a low interest has been announced. This decision is also being seen as a setback for the employees.
