That’s right. EPFO is putting the Aadhaar circular in abeyance. This was there in Bangalore newspapers too.

Though it is good for all concerned, since it will take time to implement fully, the EPFO has asked for the Enrollment ID to be issued and mentioned by the employers until the Aadhaar Card is issued. Thus, there is nothing to worry about for the new employees. Instead, it will be a secure method for tracing their PF account in case of need, alongside maintaining regular follow-ups of their PF account.
