How To Check If The Employer Is Depositing EPF Contribution?

EPF or the Employee Provident fund account is meant to build retirement corpus. Every month 12% of the employee's basic pay is deducted and transferred to the EPF account. Similar amount is also contributed by the employer on his behalf to the employee's EPF account. Nevertheless, there are times when the amount deducted from the salary against the EPF contribution is not deposited into the EPF account. This is the reason why the retirement fund body-the Employee Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) gives subscribers access to check their contribution together with that of the employer in their account online.
