EDLI benefit from ₹7 lakh to ₹10.5 lakh?

Описание: No. The increase in the wage ceiling can increase the wage-linked component used for calculating the EDLI benefit, but the maximum assurance benefit presently payable under EDLI remains ₹7 lakh. However, the EDLI benefit remains limited to the existing maximum assurance benefit of ₹7 lakh as per the present EDLI Scheme 2026.
Further, an actuarial valuation of the EDLI fund will be undertaken. Based on the analysis, the benefits may be decided in future.
