Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, retirement fund body EPFO announced that it is mandatory for subscribers to file their e-nomination before the December 31 deadline. In a statement, EPFO said “It is critical for subscribers to register nominations to care for their spouse, children, and parents and to safeguard them through online PF, pension, and insurance.”
