PF circular regarding payment of interest on unclaimed PF contribution, even after resigning from service?

tk-rajesh
This query is regarding the payment of interest on PF of an employee who has resigned. Can anybody help with a copy of the PF circular regarding payment of interest on unclaimed PF contribution, even after resigning from service? Till what period is the employer/trust liable to pay interest on the PF accumulation after the employee has resigned and has not claimed the PF balance.

For example, if he had resigned on 31-12-2019 and submit his request for payment of PF dues on 01-10-2021. Is the interest payable for the period 01-01-2020 to the date of actual payment of dues to the employee. If so, the PF circular on this may also be shared, please.
