The ribbon was cut on a new era for employee benefits in Gujarat as Union Minister Dr. Mansukh Mandaviya inaugurated EPFO’s ‘Bhavishya Nidhi Bhavan’ in Ahmedabad’s Vatva. This regional office is now the lifeline for over 400,000 provident fund members and 21,000 pensioners from more than 7,000 companies across key districts.
From Ahmedabad’s outskirts to Anand, Kheda, Amreli, Botad, and Bhavnagar, the facility delivers comprehensive services. Regional PF Commissioner-II Supratik Dash revealed impressive stats: 50,000 monthly claims, 98% resolved in under 10 days. ‘We’re reaching every corner efficiently,’ he affirmed.
What sets this apart is its location—right by National Highway-48, metro, and bus terminals—combined with advanced digital tools and a one-stop service desk for all PF needs. Constructed for 10 crore over 1,723 square meters, it’s designed for speed and convenience.
Workers are vocal in their praise. Vires Cables’ Hatu Bhai lauded the ‘fantastic connectivity’, while Melacron India’s Umang Pandit observed heightened enthusiasm and slashed processing times from 25 minutes to just 5-10. As EPFO modernizes, this office exemplifies how infrastructure can empower the workforce, ensuring timely benefits and fostering trust in the system.
