## Frequently asked questions

### What if my ₹25,000 basic salary increases by 8% each year?

At 8% annual hikes, your basic salary roughly doubles in 9 years. Higher salary means higher EPF contributions, and since EPF compounds at 8.25%, later-year contributions also get compounding benefit. The actual corpus can be 60–80% higher than the flat-salary estimate over 10 years.

### Can I withdraw my EPF after 10 years of service?

Full EPF withdrawal is allowed only on retirement (58+) or after leaving employment for 2+ months. Partial withdrawals are permitted after 5 years for housing, medical, education, or marriage. At ₹25,000 basic, your EPF corpus after 10 years is approximately ₹6,19,000, a meaningful retirement buffer.

### How does EPF compare to a SIP for the same ₹25,000 basic salary?

EPF contributes ₹3,917/month combined (12% employee + 3.67% employer on ₹25,000) and earns 8.25% guaranteed. A ₹3,917/month SIP at 12% expected returns over 10 years gives about ₹8.9 lakh. EPF gives about ₹6.2 lakh. SIP can outperform EPF over 10 years, but EPF has zero market risk and employer co-contribution.
