Dear All,

Good evening! EPFO issued a circular this evening stating that the PF contribution for March 2020 can be paid on or before 15th May 2020, instead of 15th April 2020, without incurring any damage or interest charges. It is possible that most establishments had already paid the March 2020 contribution before this circular was issued. Please utilize this extended deadline if you have not made the payment yet.

Please find attached the relevant circular for your reference.
