Hi, I am Praveen, currently working with Samsung in Bangalore. Previously, I worked with Genisys Integrating Systems (INDIA) Pvt. Ltd., where I joined on November 20, 2006. My PF account number at that time was KN/BN/19362/1376. The company name changed on April 1, 2008, and employees were assigned new PF numbers. My new PF number became KN/WF/45573/171. Unfortunately, the employer did not transfer the amount from my previous account to the new one. I worked at Genisys until January 10, 2010, and I have neither transferred nor withdrawn the amount. Now, I wish to withdraw the funds, but I am struggling to locate these old PF account numbers. Could you please advise me on how I can obtain the PF account numbers in the current format?
Thank you,
Praveen

You are based in Bangalore only. Contact the HR Department of Genisys or its newly named company along with the application for transfer of the proceeds lying in the old two EPF membership accounts with the company to your new EPF account with Samsung. Else, contact the concerned EPFO branch to know the status of these accounts and then approach the HR Department of Samsung to get the balance in these two old accounts transferred to the account under Samsung EPF Code.
In case you have no EPF membership with Samsung or you don't want to have such accounts in the future, you may apply for withdrawal of the balance separately.

In my opinion, since you are continuing in a new establishment, you have to get it transferred to a new account number. For this, you need to inform your new employer, who will have to facilitate the transfer according to statutory requirements.
