Subject: New Promotional and Incentive Structure of PLI / RPLI
The promotional (sales) structure and incentive structure of PLI/RPLI was last revised in August 2016 & April 2017 respectively. However, most of Circles had raised concerns in the implementation of the revised promotional structure.
2. In view of the concerns raised by Circles in implementing the promotional structure, low growth in procurement of new PLI/RPIA business and decreasing trend in net accretion of PLI/RPLI premia, the existing sales structure of PLI/RPLI has been revamped based on the feedback received from the Circles.

Recently published provisional payroll data by EPFO highlights the ever growing trend of increasing subscriber base for EPFO, since the collation of payroll data from September 2017. The payroll data, presents the consolidated annual figures for 2018-19 and 2019-20. Net addition to subscriber base rose from 61.12 lakh added in 2018-19 to 78.58 lakh in 2019-20, registering a 28% growth. The data published comprises of all the new members who have joined during the month and whose contribution is received.
The subscriber growth is on account of lower exits and higher rejoining by exited members. The tax free returns of 8.5% for 2019-20, which is one of the highest among other social security instruments and fixed deposits, has helped EPFO reduce its exits for 2019-20 by around 10% as compared with previous year.
Moreover, there has been a robust increase of around 75% in terms of rejoining by the members exited from 43.78 lakh in 2018-19 to 78.15 lakh in 2019-20. The auto-transfer facility which enables hassle free transfer of PF balance from the old account to the new account on change of job has played a big role in ensuring continuity of membership in many cases.
Age wise analysis during 2019-20 indicates that for the age group 26-28, 29-35 and beyond 35 the net enrolment has increased by more than 50% compared to previous year. Rapid improvement in quality of service delivery in online mode has attracted the workforce of the country towards services of EPFO. Moreover, PF accumulation is no longer looked at as locked-in money. With EPFO settling COVID-19 advances within 3 days, PF accumulations are now seen as liquid assets that can timely meet the need of the subscribers during crisis. Similarly, PF advances can be availed in case of unemployment, marriage expense, higher education, housing and medical treatment.
Further, enrolment of female workers has gone up by around 22% during 2019-20 compared to previous years indicating greater female participation in formal workforce.
The data published indicates that a total of 1.13 lakh new establishments have commenced compliance for the first time during 2018-19 and 2019-10. Simplification of compliance process enabling establishments to obtain PF Code easily through portal and facility of filing electronic challan cum return (ECR) online has promoted voluntary compliance by establishments.
Category wise analysis of industry indicates that Hospitals and Financing Establishments have shown greater than 50% growth while Trading & Commercial establishments, Textiles and establishments providing cleaning & sweeping services have all grown at greater than 20% in terms of net enrolment. It is indeed an indication that greater formalisation of jobs is taking place in the Indian employment market which is also corroborated by the 2019-20 Economic Survey.

From the date following the date of expiry of leave, the employee may be deemed to have joined duty, subject to fulfillment of other requirements based on the type of leave availed and subject to having worked from home after expiry of sanctioned leave (without Curtailment).

Dear Comrade,
Nationwide Protest on 3rd July 2020 Struggle of Non Cooperation and Defiance
The outbreak of Covid-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdown has created a new dimension of the world order; our country is of no exception. We are concerned to note that more than 330000 people have been found to be infected with the virus and around 10000 died. As per experts, the peak is yet to be reached in our country in the backdrop of 10000 people per day found positive in last 4 consecutive days and rising. The country wide lockdown started on 25th March 2020 and first phase of unlock is continuing with some restrictions for containment areas; following initiation of unlocking the number of infected persons is on the rise.
As a result of lockdown, more than 14 crore jobs were lost during the period in organised and unorganised sectors. As per ILO, more than 40 crore people may be pushed to deep poverty. The migrant workers were put into inhuman misery with sudden declaration of lockdown; many workers died due to starvation; heat; exhaustion while traversing home on foot in absence of transport facilities.
The already fragile Indian economy, suffering from slowdown, is almost in the brink of disaster with continuous fall in GDP growth. A big section of people have lost purchasing power and need of the hour was to support them with monthly cash incentive of Rs.7500 for three months at least. It was required from the Govt. to supply sufficient food grains to all poor families for minimum six months. It is pity that the Govt. did not consider these suggestions put forward by eminent economists of the country and demanded by the trade unions. In the name of so called Rs.20 lakh crore Relief Package, the Govt. extended pittance for the distressed people of the country pushing them into bleak conditions.
The Govt. at the Centre, during the period of lockdown, is desperately pushing through its neo liberal economic agenda. The Govt. shamelessly ignored miseries of the workers who are indispensable in producing wealth of our country. Given the people badly suffering, different state governments are diluting and/or suspending labour laws for the interests of the big business houses; obviously with tacit support from the Centre. Efforts are made to increase 8 hours workday to 12 hours. Attacks have been mounted on the employees and retirees by stopping DA and DR respectively, by the Central Govt. and some of the State Govts. In the disguise of making a new self reliant India, ceremoniously named as ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’, wholesale privatisation of the public sector enterprises including strategic sector is contemplated. We came across media reports that privatisation of some PSBs is under consideration of the Govt.
At the call of Central Trade Unions (CTUs), nationwide protest was organised against continuous attacks on the workers and their rights in which we also joined. Given that the Govt. at the Centre is in the mood of furthering their attacks, the CTUs jointly with the Federations and Associations of various sectors have decided to observe Nationwide Protest Day on 3rd July 2020. It was further decided that countrywide united struggles of Non-cooperation and Defiance against the detrimental policies of the Govt. will be launched; concrete form of the struggle including nationwide General Strike will be finalised by the joint
platform in due course.
We call upon our Units and Affiliates to participate in the programme as decided by respective State/area committees of the Central Trade Unions and Federations/Associations of different sectors including ourselves to make the Nationwide Protest Day on 3rd July 2020 a massive success.
Joint Press Statement of the Central Trade Unions and Federations released on 05th June 2020 is appended.
