Here is some good news for those of you contributing towards provident fund from your salary with Employees Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) of India. Going forward, salaried people would no longer have to go through the tedious and rather long process of knowing the details of their PF account. Every bit of information related to Provident fund that you may want to track would be just a ‘click’ away in the very near future! If you are looking for info on New Pension Scheme (NPS), check out another article on this blog by following this link.
This news is indeed of a great help to about 4.5 crore PF subscribers in India. One this system is online, all the pf accounts across the country would be made available online. I have gone through a helluva process of getting my PF account details transferred from my previous employers to current one. After all possible kind of interactions with various levels of authorities, till date I have no clue on what is the status of my account transfer. Hope this new system solves all such painful issues associated with individual pf accounts.
The facility is expected to be fully functional from December this year, according to Labour Ministry sources as quoted by one of the prominent news papers recently. Due to the sheer size of the number of accounts, it wouldn’t be an easy task for the government organizations to solve this in a short span of time. Also the paper quoted – “EPFO officials revealed that computerization of its operation took them eight years. Since April, a test run of the facility has been implemented.” It is understandable that people rely a lot on PF to save some Income tax as well as a compulsory investment mode for salaried class people.
In the first phase of implementation after opening it for subscribers online, account balance will be made available. In the latter part of the project, which might roll over to sometime in 2010, the subscribers would be able to view their contribution, interest accrued, status of application for advances, loans and a host of other activities. Also, as a matter of fact PF department had collected forms from many of us to provide with what they call as SSN (Social Security Number) – haven’t heard any news on that number, but off late we are all talking about NUIA (National Unique Identification Authority). Not sure how many more such unique numbers are awaiting in the store! I would be very happy the day all my information is made available with ease in accessing without any delays and hierarchies 🙂
===========
UPDATE #1 : As per the latest communication by EPF, the PF account details have been made online for few circles. Check out my new post with all the details here – https://mohanbn.com/know-your-pf-account-balance-online/. This data is currently available for Delhi (North), Delhi (South), Laxmi Nagar (Delhi), Gurgaon, Faridabad, Karnal and Bangalore. For rest of the circles, read through this article for more relevant information and links.
UPDATE #2 : A new article has been published with complete information you need to know to get started on Universal Account Number (UAN). Feel free to go through the article, follow steps to start linking your PF accounts with UAN for hassle free transfer of balance from your previous PF accounts to the current one.

First of all thanks to Mohan providing a valuable info……and here is some .5 cents from my side.
Unfortuantely the link given by you solves the problem partially. The site is giving information only if we have put any account transfer/Fnd Withdrwal status only.
Here is one more link to see the Chennai region people status which will give you the balance details also…
http://www.epfochennai.tn.nic.in/obcb/oblogin.aspx
Establishment code for the company also u can search using the above link or u can find it in the recent Payslips
For Eg: if your PF account no. is AP/HY/12345/1245
Then, usually first 5 digits i.e 12345 will be establishment Code and last part will be employee no.

shagufta n khan says

how to check my provident fund balane? Please give me procedure to findout

Nitin there is no clear way of doing it effectively. In some regions, online checking of pf account details has been enabled while in other places, you still need to get in touch with regional PF office to know the balance.
Shilpa says

Mohan says
Shilpa, I don’t have the delhi region link to check the account details. I will update it in the main article soon after coming across the same.
Fenila says
I want to withdraw money from my PF a/c which was opened through previous employer. However the company has shut down now. I dont know in which PF office my a/c is maintained. I m from Mumbai.
Pls suggest. Thanks!
Mohan says
Fenila, I think you can get that information from any of the payslips from that company. Usually, they mention PF number in payslips. Once you have that info, you can directly reach out to PF dept for further action.

chandramani Das says

babita verma says
Hi,
I want know to check status of my PF a/c. I m currently working in Hyderabad, but my PF account was started in Kolkata. Please help.
Thanks & Regards
Babita Verma
Mohan says
Babita, I am don’t have a link to check the PF details for Hyd/Kolkata. Please share if you get to know, so that it will be useful for others too.
Neeraj Shinde says
Mohan, Thanks for sharing. But it would be more useful if you could have shared the link for this new system, if at all! However, I am still skeptical how well this system would work. I always have a negative mindset pertaining to government systems.
Mohan says
Hi Neeraj, there is no central site to list for the entire nation. People from karnataka region (except bangalore circle) can check their details here – http://epfmangalore.org/index.html So, collating and listing out all the regional sites is not an easy task. Hence I haven’t mentioned it above. Appreciate if any of the readers can contribute that info in the form of comments. I will update them in the main post.
Umesh Narvekar says

Mohan says
Absolutely, that is why so many people are looking forward for this online method of accessing their PF account information. Like I have mentioned above, it is available in some of the PF account circles. In karnataka this info is available for all the regions except Bangalore.

Mohan says
Abhijeet, usually companies offer to deposit your PF money either with their own trusts or they deposit with govt. So, check with your HR about the details and also they will be able to provide you with your PF account number with which you can get all the details from appropriate PF agencies.
Mohan says
Pls suggest the website to check my PF a/c status??
Mohan says
Hi Mohan, glad to meet you here! you are the first person over here with the same name as mine 🙂
If you are anywhere in Karnataka except Bangalore, you can now check Employee Provident Fund (EPF) balance online here – http://epfmangalore.org/index.html

Nice pick on few more unique numbers Chirantan. My comment was more of pun intended towards our existing system. All these numbers have their own uniqueness to serve a different purpose, lets not forget that.
