After a board meeting of EPFO's apex decision making body the Central Board of Trustees (CBT), Labour Minister Mallikarjun Kharge told reporters: "The board discussed the rate of interest for 2012-13. After detailed discussion, the board decided to recommend a rate of interest of 8.5 p ercent for the year."
The minister said that the decision to pay 8.5 percent interest rate was taken unanimously by the board, which also has representation from trade unions and employers.
The trustees also decided that EPFO will give a permanent account number to all members so that it is not changed with change in job or location. The EPFO is ready with an action plan to set up a central database for the purpose.
It’s a Good news for all the PF subscribers.
