regarding partial withdrawal from the EPF (Employees Provident Fund) apply till

maximum salary of three months basic salary from his EPF account (including the
dearness allowance if it is added) or a maximum of 75% of his existing PF
balance, whichever is lower in which account holder amount and employer in PF
balance Contribution also added on it.
Let us understand this

of his PF balance is Rs 45,000.00, while the amount for three months is Rs
48,000.00 according to his monthly salary. This way the account holder can
withdraw a maximum of Rs Rs 45,000.00 only.
The account holder may
withdraw less than the maximum amount as per your requirement but only one
time. It also has a feature that the amount you withdrawal is not as like loan
