National Pension System

A substantial corpus creation for one’s retirement phase is an essential aspect to take care of during financial distributor. It not only allows individuals to fulfill their expenditure requirements but also allows them to sail through their post-retirement life with the least hassles.

The System allows for systemized savings during one’s working years, thus inculcating a financial discipline among individuals to save for the future.

An initiative undertaken by the Government of India, the National Pension System seeks to provide retirement benefits to all citizens of India, even from the unorganized sectors. Regulated and administered by the PFRDA or Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority under the PFRDA Act 2013, NPS is a defined, voluntary contribution system that is market-linked and managed by professional fund managers.

Contributions made by individual subscribers to a National Pension System under system accumulate until retirement and corpus growth continues via market-linked returns. Subscribers also have an option to exit this plan before retirement or opt for superannuation. However, this system ensures that a part of savings is utilized to provide a subscriber with retirement benefits.

Thus, on retirement, exit, or superannuation, at least 40% of the contribution is utilized for the procurement of lifetime pension via the purchase of an annuity. The remaining funds are paid to the subscriber in a lump sum.
