The Employees’ Provident Fund (EPF) is one of the most important savings tools for salaried employees in India. Started in November 1951, it helps you build a financial safety net for the future. Every month, both you and your employer contribute a fixed portion of your salary to your EPF account, which is managed by the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation. Since most private companies do not offer pensions, EPF plays a key role in retirement planning.
To track your savings, it is important to regularly check and download your EPFO passbook, which shows your balance and contributions.
