We have not availed pmrpy benefit from Aug 2016, though we are adding new employees every month…is it possible to avail the benefit now…
Hi Satya,
You have to avail it before generating UAN number to the employee, so for already contributing employees you can’t able to include them under PMRPY scheme.
Dear Sir,
With reference to PMRPY registration of employees, we have some employees who were under contract, now they all are relieved from that contract and are being joined in another contractor within same establishment.(we can say inter trasnfer between contractors)
Now we have tried to enrolled them with existing UAN, but due to mismatch in aadhar and uan portal detail they couldn’t be registered with existing UAN. So we have registered them with new UAN.
Now we are in confusion that if suppose all of them who is been alloted new UAN would be registered under PMRPY portal, will they get benefits of scheme? as old UAN were not aadhar seeded.
will contractor face any query if they will not get eligible??
what you advise should we registered them under PMRPY or to avoid it?
Await for your valuable advise.
Hi Imran,
Hence they have already UAN numbers so it is not better to include them in PMRPY, because it may cause future problems.
Ok sir thank you. i shall not registered them at PMRPY portal.
Any answer to above question?
Hi Imran,
I think its NIC will be 96908 which will come under other service activities.
Yes but specifically that 96908 would be for cleaning floor and dusting all that activities, whereas i am talking about Loading – unloading ,stacking etc activities..can you suggest any other code?
as we are of thinking that due to wrong selection of NIC code in PMRPY, later on will there be any complication by govt authority???
Hi Imran,
Then 5224 Cargo handling activities will be the perfect NIC code for loading and unloading activities.
Ok sir, but will it impact on post inspection by authority or any problem happen in future due to this?
Hi Imran,
For confirmation, you can contact your state PMRPY help desk. Here are the Toll-free numbers or send a mail to pmrpyfeedback@epfindia.gov.in
