<h1>Rule 67: Provident Fund Investment Guidelines Include Govt Securities, Debt, Equities, and Asset-Backed Securities.</h1> Rule 67 of the Income Tax Rules, 1962, outlines the investment guidelines for Recognised Provident Funds in India. Contributions to such funds, post-October 31, 1974, can be deposited in Post Office Savings or scheduled bank accounts. Uninvested funds must be allocated according to specified categories: government securities (45-50%), debt instruments (35-45%), short-term debt (up to 5%), equities (5-15%), and asset-backed securities (up to 5%). Various conditions and limits apply to these investments, including credit rating requirements and restrictions on mutual fund allocations. The rule aims to ensure prudent management and diversification of provident fund investments.
