The fundamental goal of the NPS is to ensure that account holders continue to earn a steady income after they retire, as well as generate significant returns on their investment, in addition to offering tax benefits.

What is NPS?

The NPS is a government-sponsored retirement planning program for those without continuous pensions after retirement.

NPS requires that every year, up until retirement, one must contribute a minimum of Rs 1000 to one’s NPS account balance. Approximately 60% of the cash can be withdrawn after maturity. With the remaining 40%, an annuity must be purchased to provide a consistent income post-retirement.
