Hack of the day: How to check your EPF pension passbook details

For millions of salaried employees in India, the Employees’ Pension Scheme (EPS) is a critical part of their retirement savings. Each month, a portion of your salary is deducted and deposited into your EPF account, with a share directed toward EPS. However, many employees rarely verify whether their employer is correctly depositing this pension contribution. Over time, even small errors or missed deposits can accumulate, potentially reducing your pension benefits when you retire. By regularly checking your EPF pension passbook online, you can confirm that every monthly contribution is properly recorded, ensure that deposits match your salary slip deductions, and safeguard your long-term financial security. This simple audit not only promotes transparency but also helps you stay in control of your retirement planning.
