Even though you may see many people running their own shops, big businesses, or companies, there is no doubt that a large section of people are employed. After working every month, finally the employees get their salary. Apart from this, as per the rules, many employees also have a PF account, in which some money from their salary is deposited every month. At the same time, annual interest is also given by the government on this money.
