Frequently Asked Questions
What is NPS and who can invest?
NPS (National Pension System) is a government-backed retirement savings scheme. Any Indian citizen aged 18-70 can invest. It offers market-linked returns with tax benefits under Section 80CCD.
What are the tax benefits of NPS?
NPS offers triple tax benefits: (1) 80CCD(1) - up to 10% of salary within ₹1.5L limit, (2) 80CCD(1B) - additional ₹50,000 deduction, (3) 80CCD(2) - employer contribution up to 10% of basic (no limit). At maturity, 60% lump sum is tax-free.
What is the minimum contribution in NPS?
Minimum contribution is ₹500/month or ₹6,000/year for Tier I account. Tier II has no minimum. You can contribute more whenever convenient.
Can I withdraw before 60?
Partial withdrawal (up to 25%) is allowed after 3 years for specific purposes like education, marriage, illness, or house purchase. Early exit (before 60) requires 80% annuity purchase.
What returns can I expect from NPS?
NPS returns are market-linked and vary based on asset allocation. Historically, equity funds have given 9-12% returns, while government securities give 8-9%. Corporate bonds offer 9-10%.
What happens to NPS at retirement?
At 60, you can withdraw 60% tax-free as lump sum. Remaining 40% must be used to buy an annuity plan that provides monthly pension. The pension is taxable at your slab rate.
