Since, at present, PF is getting the lowest interest in 43 years, it is expected to get approval from the Finance Ministry soon. Interest can be credited to the PF account of EPFO members anytime after getting approval from the Finance Ministry.
Interest money can be received before June 30
According to the report, the government can transfer interest money to PF account holders anytime before the end of the next month i.e. before June 30.
