any interest credited to the PF account of an employee shall be tax-free in case of contributions up to Rs 2.5 lakh every year. However, any interest on the contribution of an employee of over Rs 2.5 lakh will be taxed in the hands of the employee. In case an employer does not contribute to the PF account of the employee, then the threshold limit applicable will be Rs 5 lakh of the contribution of the employee
