Synopsis ET Wealth Reader's Query: I contributed to EPF until 2021 while working at an MNC. Since moving to a startup in 2022 that doesn’t offer PF, my EPF account has been inactive.
The corpus is about Rs 32 lakh, and I’m considering withdrawing and reinvesting it. Will the withdrawal be ta free since my total service exceeds five years?
Are there better options than withdrawal, such as transferring to NPS? What would be a good long-term investment strategy for this?
