How to use this calculator

EPF withdrawal is FULLY TAX-FREE if: (a) you have 5+ years of continuous service, or (b) retirement at age 58+.
- 2
If less than 5 years of service: withdrawal is taxable. TDS @ 10% is deducted if withdrawal > ₹50,000 (with PAN).

If your total income is below the taxable limit, file Form 15G (or 15H for senior citizens) to prevent TDS deduction.

EPF transfer to new employer does NOT break continuity — the 5-year clock continues.
Frequently asked questions
Is EPF withdrawal taxable?
EPF withdrawal is TAX-FREE if you have completed 5 or more years of continuous service (across employers if transferred). It is also tax-free on retirement at age 58. If you withdraw before 5 years: the amount is added to your income and taxed at your slab rate. TDS @ 10% is deducted at source if withdrawal exceeds ₹50,000 and you provide PAN (20% without PAN).
What is Form 15G for EPF withdrawal?
Form 15G is a self-declaration that your total income is below the basic exemption limit (₹3 lakh for new regime / ₹2.5 lakh for old regime). By submitting Form 15G to EPFO, you request that no TDS be deducted on EPF withdrawal. Senior citizens (60+) use Form 15H. This is only valid if your actual tax liability is nil — if you have taxable income, you cannot file 15G.
