India keeps General Provident Fund interest rate unchanged at 7.1% for July–September 2025 quarter
The Ministry of Finance has kept the General Provident Fund (GPF) interest rate unchanged at 7.1% for the July–September 2025 quarter. According to a notification issued by the Department of Economic Affairs on July 2, the 7.1% rate applies from July 1 to September 30, 2025, covering GPF and several related provident fund schemes for government employees. The interest rate applies to: General Provident Fund (Central Services) Contributory Provident Fund (India) All India Services Provident Fund State Railway Provident Fund General Provident Fund (Defense Services) Indian Ordnance Department Provident Fund Indian Ordnance Factories Workmen's Provident Fund Indian Naval Dockyard Workmen's Provident Fund Defense Services Officers Provident Fund Armed Forces Personnel Provident Fund These schemes are exclusively available to government employees, who contribute regularly from their salaries. The final corpus, including interest, is paid out at retirement, serving as a financial cushion post-service. The GPF rate is reviewed quarterly by the Ministry of Finance. This quarter's rate remains aligned with the Public Provident Fund (PPF) rate of 7.1%. While PPF is open to all Indian citizens with a 15-year lock-in, GPF is exclusive to government employees with full withdrawal permitted at retirement. In contrast, the Employees' Provident Fund (EPF), meant for private-sector employees, is reviewed annually by the EPFO. The move ensures continued stability in returns for government employees saving through these schemes.
