The Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) has started crediting interest for the financial year 2022-23 (FY23) to the EPF accounts. Subscribers can soon expect the interest amounts to reflect in their total PF balance.

A few EPFO members have already received the interest amounts. Currently, the interest rate for FY 2022-23 is 8.15%.

Earlier, responding to a query on X (formerly Twitter) about crediting the interest to PF accounts, the provident fund regulatory body said, “The process is in the pipeline and may be shown there very shortly. Whenever the interest will be credited, it will be accumulated and paid in full. There would be no loss of interest. Please maintain patience.”
