I worked for a MNC for the last 9 years. Now i have been doing consulting since the last six months. I'm not employed anywhere. So i'm not contributing to my EPF fund. 1) Do i get interest on the accumulated fund when i not putting any money further into my EPF account ? 2) Can i withdraw from EPF on account of not being employed ?
1. Yes you get interest on that Amount. B'coz your EPF account is not closed. 2. You can withdraw money also, Then they will calculate the interest upto that date and give the lumpsum amount to you. If you don't need money then I personally suggest don't withdraw money.
