The Centre on Friday has given a go-ahead for a 8.1% rate for EPF for 2021-22, which is an over 4-decade low. This means the interest shall be soon credited in 5 crore subscribers.
In the previous year, the rate was at a 8.5% for 2020-21.
As per the EPFO's order, , the Ministry of Labour and Employment has given its approval of the central government to credit an 8.1 percent rate of interest for 2021-22 to each member of the EPF scheme. The labour ministry had sent the proposal to the Ministry of Finance for its concurrence.

It is worth mentioning that in 2018-19, the rate was at 8.65% and in 2019-20 was reduced to a seven year low of 8.5% in 2019-20.
