What is Provident Fund (PF)?
The Employees' Provident Fund (EPF) is a statutory social security scheme established to provide retirement benefits and long-term financial security to employees. Under the scheme, both the employer and the employee contribute a prescribed percentage of the employee's wages to the Provident Fund.
The scheme is administered by the Employees' Provident Fund Organization (EPFO), Ministry of Labour & Employment, Government of India.
Employers are required to register eligible establishments, enroll eligible employees, deposit monthly PF contributions, maintain statutory records, and comply with the filing requirements prescribed under the EPF laws.
Regulatory Framework
PF compliance in India is governed by:
- Employees' Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952
- Employees' Provident Fund Scheme, 1952
- Employees' Pension Scheme (EPS), 1995
- Employees' Deposit Linked Insurance Scheme (EDLI), 1976
- Notifications, Circulars, and Guidelines issued by the Employees' Provident Fund Organization (EPFO)
- Applicable Labour and Social Security Laws

Applicability of PF
The EPF provisions generally apply to establishments employing the prescribed number of employees as specified under the applicable law. Eligible employees are required to be enrolled under the EPF Scheme, subject to the provisions relating to eligibility, wage limits, and exemptions.
