💰 Fees before you decide

What this actually costs — before you commit to anything.

NidhiSetu is an independent private consultancy, not EPFO. EPFO's own services are free. You only ever pay for diagnosis, documentation, follow-up and escalation — and you'll always know the number before any work starts.

Two ways to work with me

Start with a consultation. Pay only for what you actually need.

Case Support

Written quote

Given after your consultation, before any work begins

  • Covers both straightforward and complex cases — price reflects what your case actually needs
  • Never a percentage of your PF balance
  • Fee, scope and expected timeline confirmed in writing first — you decide before anything is billed

🚫 No percentage-of-balance fees — ever, regardless of case size 📝 Fee, scope and timeline in writing — before any work starts 🎯 Outcome never guaranteed — EPFO's decision is EPFO's alone
What "no resolution, no charge" actually means

You're never charged for a case where nothing real was done.

If I take on your case and I don't file a grievance, submit a correction, prepare documents, or send a documented escalation on your behalf — nothing happened, and you owe nothing. That's the baseline promise.

But if real work is completed — a grievance filed on EPFiGMS, a correction request submitted, documents prepared and sent, an escalation logged and followed up — that work is chargeable, whether or not EPFO's own final decision goes in your favour. I don't control EPFO's decision, and no one honestly can. What I commit to is that real, documented work happens on your case before you owe anything — not that EPFO will rule the way you want.

If you're ever unsure whether this applies to your situation, ask before you agree to anything — that's what the consultation and the written quote are for.

Not sure which of these you need?

Book a consultation — I'll tell you honestly whether your case needs case support or nothing at all.

Pricing FAQ

Questions people actually ask

Why isn't there a fixed price for case support? +
Because scope varies too much case to case — a straightforward KYC correction and a multi-employer service-overlap dispute take very different amounts of work. Every case starts with a paid consultation, after which you get a fixed price in writing, before any work begins.
Is the fee ever a percentage of my PF balance? +
No. NidhiSetu never charges a percentage of your PF balance. The fee reflects the work involved in your specific case, not the size of your account.
What exactly do I get for the ₹499 consultation? +
A live 30-minute video call with me directly, where your actual documents and claim history are reviewed and you get a clear, honest route forward — including, if that's the honest answer, that you don't need paid help at all.
Can EPFO's decision be guaranteed if I pay for case support? +
No, and treat anyone who tells you otherwise as a red flag — see how to spot a PF scam. What's guaranteed is that real, documented work happens on your case; EPFO's own decision is EPFO's alone.
