EPF & Miscellaneous PROVISIONS ACT, 1952.
It was interesting to note from the Post of Shri C.N.Venugopan the provisions. After reading, I referred to the Act itself. I am quoting the extract of Sec. 16 of the Act. He may kindly examine whether this section has undergone any amendment to decide on the applicability of the Act itself to the Nationalised Banks and Corporations like the LIC.
