New Bank Account Link with EPF Account: If you work in the organized sector, then every month a part of your salary is deducted and deposited into your EPF account. Apart from the employee, money is also deposited in the EPF account by the company. A good amount of interest is earned on this amount deposited every month. At present interest is being given on it at the rate of 8.25 percent. A good retirement fund can be added through EPF. If needed, partial withdrawal from EPF fund can be done with certain conditions and even after leaving the job.
