Go ahead.
You will get your principle amount plus interest, minus any withholding charges.
My brother was in this scheme when he was with a software company in Canada. On his return to India (resignation), he was allowed to withdraw the entire amount.
5% withholding tax was held. It was refunded after his tax return for that year (pro rata).

After reading thoroughly the booklet I can't find any information about the vesting period so I assume that there's no vesting period.

I can live with the penalty as long I get my principal amount back.

Here is a subject matter on vesting. It is worth reading to get an idea what I meant by the term VESTING. Some time later, when you get the report from the Pension Society that you belong, you will come to know more and if you can reverse engineer the Statement, you can also get to know the full system. That is for another day.

Hi FH,

I got a confirmation from the HR that there is no vesting period. When I decide to leave today, I get my contribution as well as the employer contribution in full (ofcourse based on the market value)

The fund is managed by Sunlife.

Gives me some peace of mind now !!

Check again.
If you resign, you may get only your part back. The employer's will go to him.

That is the normal rule in many IT companies.

Just double check to give you satisfaction.
