Should I increase EPF contributions through VPF?▾
VPF (Voluntary Provident Fund) lets you contribute more than the mandatory 12% to your EPF account. VPF contributions earn the same 8.25% rate, are eligible for 80C deduction (within Rs. 1.5L limit), and are fully tax free on withdrawal after 5 years. If you have surplus income after maxing 80C through other instruments, VPF is one of the best risk-free options available.
