Government employees in Haryana covered under the Haryana Civil Services (General Provident Fund) Rules, 2016 can now download their annual GPF statements online. This detailed guide explains what a GPF statement is, eligibility, step-by-step download instructions, how to interpret the statement, common discrepancies, and tips to safeguard your retirement savings.

1. What is a GPF Statement?

A GPF (General Provident Fund) statement is a yearly record of contributions, interest credit, withdrawals/advances, and closing balance in the GPF account of a government employee. It is issued by the Office of the Principal Accountant General (A & E), Haryana and is an official document reflecting your provident fund account status for the specified financial year.

The statement typically includes:

• Opening balance at the start of the period.
• Subscriptions (deductions from salary) during the year.
• Interest credited for the year.
• Withdrawals, advances or loans taken against GPF.
• Closing balance at the end of the year.
• Any arrears, corrections or adjustments.

2. Why It Matters

Here’s why downloading and verifying your GPF statement annually is important:

• Transparency: You can ensure your contributions and interest credit are correctly recorded.
• Financial planning: Your closing balance helps you plan for retirement, advance withdrawal, or loan options.
• Audit & verification: Accurate statements avoid discrepancies when claiming final settlement at retirement or avail withdrawal benefits.
• Proof of record: A downloaded PDF serves as proof in case of dispute, audit, or departmental inquiry.
