Greetings to All,

As per your queries, EPFO has issued a new circular relating to applicability of TDS (Income Tax deduction at Source) on EPF withdrawals. These new provisions was effective from 1st June, 2015. TDS is applicable on EPF withdrawal where accumulation (balance) is more than Rs 30,000(New limit is Rs. 50,000/-) and the EPF member (Employee) has worked less than Five years.

(Budget 2016-17 Latest update: In case of payment of accumulated balance due to an employee in EPF, the TDS limit is being raised from Rs 30,000 to Rs 50,000. So, TDS is not applicable if the PF withdrawal amount is less than Rs 50,000. This new TDS thresh-hold limit was effective from 1st June, 2016 onwards. (Click on the below image to download EPFO’s latest notification on this new amendment.)

As per EPFO’s circular, “the Finance Act, 2015 (20 of 2015) has inserted a new section ‘192A’ regarding the payment of accumulated provident fund balance due to an employee. The provision was effective from June 1, 2015.”
