Dear Anony,
As far as i know, only active subscribers of EPFO are eligible for EDLI benefits. As a pensioner, if there is no contribution made to your PF account, you are not eligible for EDLI benefits.

The following response is incorrect, EDLI only covers those who are actively employed at the time of death.
