Tax On PF Withdrawl - Pf Withdrawal

Hi,
Can anyone tell me whether the PF withdrawn before completion of 5 years service is taxable. What does the act says regarding the taxation on withdrawl.
An insight into this would help.

Hi Parul,

If your PF account is maintained by EPFO, under any circumstances PF withdrawal is not taxable.

If your PF account is maintained by PF trust, then it depends on trust rules.

Please check with your organization before you apply for PF withdrawal.

Thanks and regards,
Sunitha.

PF/Superannuation withdrawal before completion of 5 years service is subject to income tax/TDS by PF Deptt. as per IT Act.
