NSSN is a social security number issued by the Employee Provident Fund Department, in order to allot only one unique number to an employee for his whole lifetime of working anywhere in India.
At present, an employee leaves a Company, withdraws amount from Fund and when he/she joins the new company, another PF Account No. is generated. Usually, an employees in his life time opens multiple PF account numbers thus to overcome this issue, the EPF deparment has started the concept of having unique National Social Security Number.
Here is a brief summary of SSN.
