Hi, please consider a person 'X'. He joined his job in 2011 and left it in 2014. He worked for 3 years. He received the check of Rs. 3,60.000/- as his PF money in April, 2015. 'X' didnt know that this amount was taxable as people in his company said it wont be taxable. So, he didnt paid any tax or bothered about. When he went to C.A to file his tax return, C.A told that the amount is taxable because he left his job before 5 years. Now, 'X' needs to get the details of his PF account from his employer. What are things that 'X' should ask from his employer in the request letter?
