When I check PF Balance it is being shown as "Trust" and details are not being shown. How to view the PF balance ?

You need to request your company. They are required to provide you the facility to check balance either online or on intranet using a computer. If such a facility is not extended register a grievance on Home Page requesting EPFO to issue such a direction to the company to provide such a facility.

You have to check with your company by providing your UAN Number.

In a regular EPF account, the employer deducts the EPF and Pension(EPS) and deposits it to the EPFO. The EPFO keeps track of the amount contributed, pays interest on it and also maintains the pension fund. You can track such EPF account through passbook at epf website using your UAN number and UAN password.

Companies like Infosys,TCS, Accenture have their Private PF Trust. These trusts are regulated by the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO). These EPF trusts are called as Exempted Trust.

• Pays administrative charge of 0.18% instead of regular 1.1 %. This 0.18% charge is to be remitted as inspection charges.

An employee working in company with EPF Trust has to realise that

• Though the employees of companies with EPF trust are allotted UAN and Provident Fund number or Member Id. They have limited use of UAN website. They cannot do the online withdrawal from UAN website.
• The employees of companies with EPF trust cannot see their passbook on EPF website with PF and Pension amount on the epf website as the employer or Private Trust does not deposit money to EPFO. The Company provides them with this information through payslips, company own website.
• If an employee has an EPF account with exempted or unexempted organization then he can transfer this account to Trust on joining a company with EPF Trust.
• If the employee leaves the company which has EPF trust he needs to withdraw only from the company which maintains the trust.
• If the employee joins another company then he can transfer his PF from EPF trust to another EPF trust or to EPFO depending on his new employer.
