NPS Overview

Meaning

The National Pension System (NPS) is a voluntary retirement savings program that allows members to make specific contributions to planned savings, therefore ensuring the future in the form of a pension. It is an attempt to find a long-term solution to the challenge of providing enough retirement income to every Indian citizen.

Subscribers may use the accumulated pension wealth under the scheme to acquire a life annuity from a PFRDA-empanelled life insurance firm at the time of customary withdrawal from the scheme, in addition to taking a portion of the accumulated pension wealth as a lump sum if they want. The PFRDA is the nodal agency for NPS implementation and monitoring.

Eligibility

A resident or non-resident Indian citizen is subject to the following conditions:

• Applicants must be between the ages of 18 and 65 at the time of application submission and must meet the KYC requirements.

Account Types

1. The applicant must contribute his or her retirement funds to this condition, as well as a limited withdrawal account. This is a retirement account, and the applicant may claim tax advantages on contributions made in accordance with the Income Tax regulations in effect.

2. This is a voluntary savings program. The applicant will be able to withdraw his or her money from this account at any time. This is not a retirement account, and the applicant cannot claim any tax benefits for payments to it.
