The EPFO has issued a circular on February 14 in relation to the procedure for initiation of inquiries by investigating officers under Section 7A of the EPF Act, and aimed at bringing uniformity and transparency in investigations. Field officers can initiate an inquiry only if there is a prima facie case (reasons to be substantiated in writing), and not upon receipt of any complaint, and should limit the investigation to the scope of inquiry.
