FY26: EPFO Passbook missing "Taxable Data for the year"

Income Tax Act 2025 ITR Filing

Team,

Since EPFO interest on employee contributions above 2.5L were made taxable, IIRC, the EPFO was supposed to maintain two books. The passbook last year, had a clear section ‘Taxable Data for the year’ which captured this detail. This year, the whole section has vanished from the passbook.

Given this background, I wanted to understand how to deal with this:

  1. Is this missing from everyone’s passbook or is it just something a few people are facing? If any of you have already filed and qualify for the taxation above 2.5, please do share your views.
  2. Given that its not prudent to wait longer for EPFO to update this - how can one manually calculate this and file as appropriate?

Thank you.
