How Do I Repay My EPFO Loan? Seeking Guidance on Process and Interest Rates

bcarya
Dear Respected Seniors, I am seeking information regarding the procedure for repaying the loan amount borrowed from EPFO. Could you kindly provide details on the repayment process, including the applicable interest rate and any other important consequences related to this matter?

I would greatly appreciate your guidance and valuable suggestions on this subject.

Thank you in advance.

It is not a loan; it's an advance from the PF accumulation, so it's non-refundable.

Respected All,

Thank you for your views. Dixit Ji, thank you once again; you are right. I was referring to the advance only. I was in a hurry at that time, which is why I mentioned the loan incorrectly. However, when I was researching this, I came across some advice where seniors have mentioned that the advance can be refunded with interest. This is why this question came to mind.

Thanks once again.

Dear All, It's 'NON-REFUNDABLE Withdrawals.' However, if the withdrawn amount is not utilized within the specified period for the purpose for which it is withdrawn, the same needs to be refunded back to the disbursing authority along with interest computed from the date of disbursement till the date of repayment.
