This discussion clarifies the eligibility criteria for the PMGKY scheme under EPFO, specifically concerning employee salary thresholds. The consensus is that the scheme's benefit applies if the employee's EPF wages (as reported in the ECR) are less than £15,000, even if their gross salary exceeds this amount. The key figure for eligibility is the 'EPF wages' or 'EDLI wages' reported in the EPF return, not the total gross earning.
