Amazingly, for an employee who is not able to make investments from own gross monthly income can yet stand a chance to enjoy the benefits of provident fund, money for which is deducted every month from their salaries by the employer. Provident fund accounts are managed and regulated by Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO).
