EPFO must pay penal interest on interest

When a payment for advance tax is made late, we have to pay a penal interest to the government.

Here EPFO has delayed interest credit by 11 months.

Shouldn't they be liable to pay penal interest on delay? Are rules different for government and citizens ? more
