Pf transfer request rejected for ncp issue

Hi Team

I was in a company from the year 2011. On the year 2015, company sent me abroad for onsite assignment for 1.5 years. On that that period PF contribution was not submitted.
I came back India on 2017, and continue working on same company till 2021, and PF contribution submitted regularly on the period of 2017 to 2021.

When I change my job, and requested for PF transfer , But it was rejected for NCP issue.

My ex employer asking me to put last working day on epfo portal as the travel date( year 2015) when I went on abroad , instead of my actual last working day(year 2021). They are referring some UCD process and saying it is the epfo act.

But whatever I understood it will be financial loss for me as epfo will provide interest base on contribution till 2015.

Can you please suggest whatever they suggested according to law or not. Or they( Ex employer) made any mistake for which I am suffering?

Thanks
Pratik

Quick Summary

An employee's PF transfer request was rejected due to an issue with Non-Contribution Period (NCP). The employer is suggesting the last working day be recorded as the date the employee went abroad in 2015, rather than the actual last working day in 2021. This could impact the employee's EPF interest calculation, potentially causing financial loss. The advice given suggests the employer may have defaulted by stopping contributions while the employee was working abroad and recommends consulting the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner (RPFC).

An employee shall complete 10 years of service or he shall attain the age of 55 years for full EPF. In your case, it will depend on your total service.

Sudhir Kumar, Advocate (Expert) 04 December 2022
It appears that there is probably a default by company. While working abroad they cannot stop contribution if they kept on paying you.

please be clear with facts.

Please meet RPFC concerned.
