Subject: Aadhaar linking and interoperability of General Provident Fund (GPF), Public Provident Fund (PPF) and Employees’ Provident Fund (EFF) accounts regarding.
A meeting was held
under the chairmanship of Joint Secretary, DBT Mission, Cabinet Secretariat on
25th August, 2017 at 11:00 A.M in the Conference Hall, 4th floor, Shjvaji
Stadium Annexe Building, Rajiv Chowk, New Delhi on the subject mentioned above.
The list of participants isplaced at Annexure I.
2. Joint Secretary, DBT
Mission welcomed
the participants and stated that the objective of the meeting is to deliberate
on Aadhaar linking of GPF, PPF and EPF accounts of employees, examine the
possibility of a centralised repository of employees" fund details with
Aadhaar as the primary identifier and establishing portability of fund accounts
across organisations. He requested all stakeholders to share comments and
suggestions in this regard.
3. Deputy CGA, Govt. Banking Arrangements, D/o Expenditure informed that an on-line salary application
system, Employee Information System (EIS) is being developed within PF MS
for implementation in all Drawing and Disbursing Offices (DDOS) and
Pay Accounts Offices (PAOS) of Central Ministries. EIS is envisaged to be
a central repository of details of all salaried employees, and it can also
maintain details of GPF of government employees. He fiirther stated that
at present, Aadhaar number is not a mandatory field in employee information
records, due to which Aadhaar seeding may be low. it was discussed that if the
employee data on E13 are linked with Aad’naar, it may serve the purpose
of establishing interoperability of salary and GPF accounts across DDOs.
It was highlighted that Railways and Defence departments are not covered
under £18. An example of e-Samarth was cited, which is a centralised
database of CRPP (Central Reserve Police Force) in MHA, which may be
studied for this purpose. Dy CGA also mentioned that M/o Railways and Defence
may also be consulted in this context.
4. Senior Audit Officer, Office of Comptroller & Auditor General
(CAG) of India, Delhi stated that at present, State AG (Auditor General) offices
assign new GPF numbers to employees while moving across different FAQs and
there is no centralized mapping system with Aadhaar as the primary
identifier. JS. DBT Mission requested that the matter may be taken up with
the Office of C&AG, with the concerned Dy C&AG to examine the
possibility of mapping all State GPF subscribers across the country. It
was suggested that the role of a third party such as NSDL to create and
maintain this database may also be examined.
5. Assistant Director, D/o Posts stated
that that presently, around 25 lakh PPF accounts out of 27.2 lakh accounts are
on Core Banking Solution (CBS) network and these accounts are portable across
Post Offices. It was informed that every PPF account is associated with a PPF
number and a Customer Identification Form (CIF) number, which is a unique
number that holds all personal as well as account related information of
the customer. ideally, a customer can have one CIF number in one post
office. though the customer can have multiple accounts under these
numbers. It was further informed that Aadhaar linking with individual accounts and
CIF numbers is being undertaken and 4.7 crore ClFs out of total 56 crore CIFs
(which also include savings certificates, term deposit accounts, etc) have
been seeded with Aadhaar. JS, DBT pointed out that Aadhaar
seeding is very low in this case, and the Department may undertake necessary
actions to expedite the same to achieve 100% seeding by December 31, 2017.
It was further suggested that all PPF accounts and CIF numbers may be linked
with Aadhaar and the Department may share its suggestions on establishing
a common repository of all PPF accounts using Aadhaar as the identifier.
6. Deputy Director, M/o Labour & Employment stated the Universal Account Number (UAN) provides portability for the employees covered under EPF. It was informed that 14 crore out of 4 crore active subscribers’ records have been seeded with Aadhaar. It was discussed that this will enable portability of EPF accounts when the details of Bank Account, Aadhaar and PAN are seeded in UAN database of the employees and are verified by employer on change of job. It was suggested that Aadhaar seeding of all may be taken up priority.
7. Deputy Secretary, Budget, D/o Economic Affairs stated that a host of
small saving schemes including PPF are Operated by post offices, public sector
banks and select private secror banks and Aadhaar seeding is being
undertaken in all these accounts. JS, DBT Mission enquired if the.
Department is taking any initiative to have a centralised platform for
all savings schemes, given that all banks use different systems and
Operate in silos. It was discussed that the Department may examine the
matter and share updates in this regard.
8. After detailed deliberations, the following were agreed upon.
i. All stakeholder
Departments to ensure 100% Aadhaar seeding of GPF, PPF and EPF accounts by
December 31, 2017.
ii. All Departments to
examine the possibility of developing common platforms for their respective
service subscribers/employees/account holders using Aadhaar as the unique
identifier to ensure portability across the financial system.
iii. DBT Mission to hold a review meeting with senior officers of all stakeholder Departments in the second week of September. 2017 to discuss the issue further.
