As per EPFO circular dated 18th September 2017, the EPFO has ordered the discontinuance of Form 9 in physical form in respect of all the members joining as well as the establishments being covered on or after 1st October 2017. The EPFO has cited reasons that since employee master is available in the system containing all relevant details of the employee viz. name, gender, DOB, DOJ, father's/spouse's name as well as Aadhar & bank details fetched through ECR, submission of Form No. 9 in physical form by the employer can be discontinued. The IS division has been ordered to make provision for maintenance of Form No. 9 electronically and making it available for various purposes with effect from 1st October 2017
