EPFO Sets October 15 Deadline for September PF Dues

The Employees' Provident Fund Organisation has urged employers to file the Electronic Challan-cum-Return for September 2026 and deposit EPF and EPS contributions by October 15, 2026. Timely filing ensures funds reach employees' accounts without delay. Delays may attract 12 percent annual interest under Section 7Q and damages of up to 100 percent of arrears under Section 14B.
