Your EPF Corpus
₹ 1,00,00,000 — One Crore
Age 55 — tax treatment depends on years of service below
EPF Tax — Key Rule (Sec 10(12)):
✅ If you have 5 or more years of continuous service, the entire EPF corpus is tax-free — employee contributions, employer contributions, and all interest. Age at leaving does not matter.
⚠️ Only if service was <5 years does taxation apply (employer share + interest taxable at slab). Select your service continuity below to set the correct scenario. No new contributions assumed after leaving.
