Salary slip PF deductions may not match EPF deposits, says Mint
In short
A salary slip showing PF deduction does not always mean the money reached the EPF account. Mint Money says employees can check the status and report any mismatch.
It helps employees spot shortfalls and raise them with the employer or relevant system.
