Employees Provident Fund Organization i.e. EPFO operates the PF accounts of employed people. There is a rule by the government that a certain amount should be deducted from the monthly salary of the people who work and deposited in their PF account. (However, this rule also depends on the total number of employees in the company and the salary of the employee.) Besides, the company also deposits the same amount of money in the employee's PF account. In such a situation, most people do not know whether money is being deposited in their PF account or not or how much money has been deposited so far, etc. In such a situation, if you also want to check the balance of your PF account, then you can check it through some methods. You can learn about this in the next slides...
