Tax implications of withdrawing your Provident Fund early

What are the tax implications of withdrawing your Provident Fund early?

You can minimize taxes by transferring PF, completing 5 years of service, or planning partial withdrawals for tax-exempt purposes. EPF Buddy can help with tax-efficient PF withdrawals
