You can check your Provident Fund Status Online! According to the Employee provident Fund scheme 1952, both the employee and the employer should contribute to the fund at 12% of their wages, DA and retaining allowance per month.

This rate of contribution is decreased to 10% in cases where the company has seen net loss at the end of previous financial year or exceeded its entire net worth.
The EPF Balance Scheme aims at taking care of the Retirement, Medical care, Housing, Family obligations, education of children, financing of Insurance policies of every member who makes a contribution to the scheme.
Interest Rate CalculationThe Interest rate is calculated every year in the months of March/April on a monthly basis with effect from the last day of the previous year. This interest holds true for that entire year which is fixed by the Government of India in consultation with Central board of trustees. This rate varies each year, for example in the financial year 1998-99 the rate was determined to be 12% where as in 2000-01 it was fixed at 10.25%.

A contributing member will be able to withdraw completely, the amount accrued once he retires from the service at 58 years of age.
