Dear Mr. Gokhle,
Any amount received from the Recognised Provident Fund received on its maturity or on termination of services are exempt from tax ( Capital receipt in nature for easy understanding of my professional freinds)- But if you are taking transfer from one bank to another the same should be transfer and needs to be carry out over there. It is advisable to do the same.

Yes, Rahi is correct. The such RPF is taxable.
