Hello,
If an employee has availed EPF and he was unemployed for certain months, then again he gets employed. Can anyone tell me how much such unemployment period is acceptable by EPF Act 1952 so that his previous PF contributory period will be considered while calculating contributory service and he can get all benefits as per the act?

Hello Rohini,
Actually, this is a hypothetical situation. You can consider that for any reason, he was not working with any company for some duration. After some days, he joined back another company. He has not withdrawn his PF amount either.

Dear Saurav, NCP is considered only at the time of calculating pension. As far as PF is concerened, interest is credited on monthly running balance. Best Regards Sajid Ansari-delhi

Dear,
There is no limit to such a period; it is actually known as the Non-Contributory Period (NCP). NCP is considered only when calculating pension. As far as PF is concerned, interest is credited on the monthly running balance. There is no limit to NCP under the EPF Act. A person will benefit accordingly when calculating their pension amount.
Thanks,
Mohd. Arif Khan

NCP has relevance only for Employees Pension Scheme. Not for EPF. For the pension scheme, it is upto the age of retirement - 58 years of age.

If an employee has availed EPF and was unemployed for certain months (for example, 18 months), then gets employed in a new company, can anyone tell me how much such an unemployment period is acceptable by the EPF Act 1952 so that his previous PF contributory period will be considered while calculating contributory service and he can get all benefits as per the act?
EPS Continuity and Eligibility for Pension
Just to know for EPS, whether the discontinued 18 months will be calculated for completing 10 years of EPF/EPS continuity in order to be eligible for receiving a pension after 58 years, or if it is 10 years of actual contribution to EPS. Also, is there a rule for the maximum number of years that one can't discontinue the EPS contribution in the EPF scheme?
