National Pension System (NPS) is an easily accessible, low cost, tax-efficient, flexible and portable retirement savings account. Effectively, it's a retirement plan for all. NPS was launched in 2004 to provide retirement income to all the citizens. Though initially, only new government recruits (except armed forces)were eligible to get NPS subscription, it was made available to all citizens, including those working in the unorganised sector, with effect from 1st May 2009. NPS investment is independent of your subscription to any other pension fund.  Every individual NPS subscriber gets a Permanent Retirement Account Number (PRAN) card and has a 12 digit unique number. 

National Pension System (NPS) eligibility

Any citizen of India, whether resident or non-resident, can subscribe to NPS. However, they will have to be aged between 18 – 65 years as on the date of submission of his/her application to the Point of Presence. The citizens can join NPS either as individuals or as an employee-employer group(s) (corporates) subject to submission of all required information and Know your customer (KYC) documentation.  

- An NRI can open NPS account but her/his contribution will be subject to regulatory clearance by RBI and FEMA. Such an account would close if the citizenship status of the NRI changes. 

National Pension System (NPS) maximum Age

After attaining 60 years of age, subscribers will not be permitted to make further contributions to the NPS accounts.

The balance is paid as a lump sum. If someone retires or does not want to continue in the NPS before age 60, at least 80% of accumulated pension wealth of the person is utilized for the purchase of an annuity providing for the monthly pension; balance 20% is paid as a lump sum. 

If the subscriber unfortunately dies, the entire accumulated pension wealth is paid to the nominee/legal heir of the person. 

To withdraw NPS benefits, submit a withdrawal application form to the concerned POP along with the following documents:
