The idea is to reach out to young professionals who do not have the time and expertise to their provident fund or other financialinvestments ," said Abhay Chandalia , founder of WhiteInc Group .
All the user need to do is download the app and fill in the required details which from there on will be tracked by the financial advisory firm, who will charge a fee for offering this service based on the amount to be claimed.
"We already have a website which provides this service, but it is mostly focused on shares andmutual funds ," said Chandalia.
In his budget speech, finance minister Arun Jaitley had proposed to use the unclaimed deposits of around Rs 3,000 crore in Public Provident Fund (PPF) and around Rs 6,000 crore in Employees Provident Fund (EPF) corpus to create a Senior Citizen Welfare Fund. The fund is expected to be used for subsidising the premium of vulnerable groups such as old-age pensioners, below-the-poverty line card holders, and small and marginal farmers.
The firm plans to expand its services to other unclaimed investments in shares,insurance and mutual funds as well.
