Epf withdrawal after 5 years of service

dear all,
one pvt ltd Co employee worked in year 16-17 in company 1
from 2017 worked In company 2 till today.
she withdrew pf of company 1 now (in 2023) around 98k and tds deducted around 13k.
my doubt is she rendered 5 years of continuous service and now only withdrew the pf. is this amount taxable?

Quick Summary
An employee withdrew their EPF from a previous employer after 5 years of continuous service, incurring TDS. The query is whether this withdrawal is taxable and if the TDS can be reclaimed by declaring the income as exempt. The consensus is that it is not taxable and the TDS can be claimed back.

No... ...
Thank you sir. so can we declare this income under exempt and claim tds refund?
