EPFO Update: EPFO Subscribers Alert! Interest for 2021-22 to Be Credited on This Date, Read How to Check Balance

The Employees' Provident Fund Organization's (EPFO) 7 crore subscribers are most likely to get their PF interest payment for the fiscal year 2021–2022 in July 2022. In December 2021, the FY21 EPF interest rate was credited. However, until July 15, interest funds for FY 22 can be deposited into PF accounts. The interest rate on deposits was reduced by the retirement fund EPFO for FY22 from 8.5 percent to 8.1 percent. Since it was 8% in 1977–1978, this is the lowest interest rate that has been recorded.
