Supreme Court urges EPFO wage ceiling decision: What's next?

The Supreme Court has told the Centre to decide in four months whether to raise the wage ceiling for the Employees’ Provident Fund, which is stuck at 15,000 rupees since 2014. If they do, it could boost employees' retirement savings but might pinch small businesses' wallets, making hiring a bit trickier.
