- Log in to the EPFO (Employees' Provident Fund Organisation) website or the relevant portal for viewing your PLA account details.
- Look for the option to check or download your PLA statement or deposit records.

2. **Compare Statements**:
- Obtain a recent PLA statement from the EPFO portal and compare it with your internal ledger records and ER-1 returns.
- Check for discrepancies in amounts, dates, and transaction details.

### 2. **Reconcile Differences**
1. **Identify Discrepancies**:
- List out the discrepancies between the ledger books and the ER-1 returns.
- Identify if there are specific transactions or periods where the discrepancies are concentrated.

2. **Verify Transactions**:
- Cross-check the PLA deposits recorded in your ledger with the actual amounts deposited as per your bank statements.
- Ensure that all entries in the ledger are accurate and correspond to the correct periods.
