EPFO alert: New rule makes family eligible for Rs 50000 payout if PF holder dies even if Death balance in fund is less than…

Home Business EPFO alert: New rule makes family eligible for Rs 50000 payout if PF holder dies even if Death balance in fund is less than… EPFO alert: New rule makes family eligible for Rs 50000 payout if PF holder dies even if Death balance in fund is less than… EPFO's new move is seen as a big step forward in strengthening the social security net for employees and their dependents. (File/Representational) The Ministry of Labour and Employment has notified the Employees' Deposit-Linked Insurance (Amendment) Scheme, 2025, has updated the policy in which they are easing the eligibility criteria for insurance benefits under the EPFO. As per the new notification, in the unfortunate event of an EPF member's death, a minimum assurance benefit of Rs 50,000 will now be payable to the family, even if the employee's average provident fund balance is less than Rs 50,000. This will be applicable to members of both regular EPF and those covered under exempted provident funds under Section 17 of the EPF Act. EPFO New Rules: The benefit applies even if the employee dies during the preceding 12 months or still in service. To qualify for the benefit, a continuous service of 12 months was required. However, the EPFO has clarified that a gap of up to 60 days between two periods of employment will not break continuity and multiple services will be counted as one. If a member dies within six months of the last PF contribution while still on the employer's payroll, the family is still eligible for the Rs 50000 benefit under the amended scheme. EPFO Old Rule VS New Rule Earlier, families of employees who passed away within a year of joining were not eligible for EDLI insurance benefits. After this amendment, the scheme now will give minimum financial support of Rs 50,000 to the bereaved families and much-needed relief during difficult times.

Modi made the remarks after holding wide-ranging talks with Maldivian President Mohamed Muizzu, focusing on consolidating cooperation in areas of trade, defence and infrastructure. The prime minister's visit marked a major turnaround in India-Maldives ties after a spell of unease. Modi also announced that the two countries will work towards finalising a bilateral investment treaty and that negotiations for a free trade pact have already started. The Maldives holds an important place in India's "Neighbourhood First" policy and MAHASAGAR (Mutual and Holistic Advancement for Security and Growth Across Regions) vision, the prime minister said. Modi said India has decided to provide a line of credit of USD 565 million (Rs 4,850 crore) to the Maldives. Mutual cooperation in the field of defence and security is a testament to mutual trust, he said. India will always support the Maldives to strengthen its defence capabilities, he added. Modi landed in Male this morning to a warm welcome with Muizzu and a number of top ministers of his government receiving the prime minister at the Velena international airport, reflecting the importance Male attached to the trip.
