Old PF amount retrieval

Dear Fellow Members,
Is there any way to recover/withdraw money from a 32 years old PF account? This pertains to an employment with a private firm in the year 1984-85.
Appreciate your advise & help.
Regards,

Dear Mr Chatterjee, I don't have the PF number. I don't know if there was a centralised PF in mid eighties. Also, the company's present existence is not known. However, I do have the pay slips wherein the relevant deductions can be seen. Ideally when a person leaves the organisation he should be paid all the dues including transfer/payment of PF amount. But in many cases companies do not pay all the dues like in my case, the PF amount is still unpaid after more than 30 years. In such cases is the defaulting company liable to pay interest / penal interest for the entire period it held the money with them? Regards, Vikas C. Jha more  
Thanks all for their valuable inputs. more  
Mr. Amrik Singh is right in explaining you the steps. Please follow him. more  
Mr. Jha. Please clear ur self in explaining regarding ur service whether u have left the company or not. I u have left the co., or have being retrenched then ur PF will go no where. In case u have been attached with the same at present also then in this case u can only get partly withdraw PF amount for urgent work and ask for Non returnable withdrawn. If u have left the company then u can get full PF amount after filling the relevant FORM 10. The organization in which u was working will mark and stamp the Form after seeing the details filed of ur joining and leaving of organization. Going through Organization is why because the PF starting No belongs to ur organization account. After this procedure the forms will be sent to PF Department for releasing the PF amount or if it is on line then things can be cleared easily. If then also u get any difficulty then u can move direct to PF department (Office) with ur PF No. of if any detail of PF statement u r having. Thx more  
if you are in employment, apply for transfer of PF from your previous employer to the present employer, with all relevant details. Apply in zForm 13(R) so that you can get your PF, if you are not in employment, apply in Form 19/10(C) apply for withdrawal. more
