EPF Passbook Not Showing September–October 2025 Wages? Here’s What You Need to Know

Many EPF members recently noticed that their EPF passbook is not showing wage details for September and October 2025. This has caused confusion among employees who regularly track their monthly provident fund contributions. 

However, the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) has confirmed that there is no issue with member accounts. The temporary delay is happening because the organisation is updating its systems.

Why Are September–October Contributions Not Visible in EPF Passbook?

According to EPFO, the passbook updates for these two months are currently being processed under a revamped ECR ledger posting system. This technical upgrade is causing a short period of non-visibility in passbook entries. EPFO has stated that the updated details should appear within a couple of days.

During this time, members do not need to take any action. Once the system update is complete, the contributions will automatically reflect in the passbook.

EPF Interest Rate for 2024–25

For the financial year 2024–25, the EPF interest rate has been set at 8.25%. This rate has already been approved by the government and will be credited to member accounts after the annual interest calculation is completed.

New ‘Passbook Lite’ Feature Introduced

To make checking contributions easier, EPFO has launched a new feature called Passbook Lite. This tool provides a simple view of your contributions, withdrawals and current balance directly through the member portal. It removes the need to visit the separate passbook website and helps members access essential information more quickly.

1. Visit the UAN Member e-Sewa portal.
2. Enter your UAN and password.
3. Complete the OTP verification sent to your registered mobile number.
4. After logging in, select Passbook Lite to view or download your passbook.

Conclusion

The temporary delay in updating EPF passbooks for September and October 2025 is due to system improvements and not an error in member accounts. EPFO has assured that all entries will reflect soon.
