Overview

The National Pension Scheme (NPS) is a retirement savings scheme that aims to provide retirement benefits to all Indian citizens. It encourages you to make regular contributions across your employment period and build a significant retirement corpus. It is market-linked and managed by a professional fund manager, facilitating incredible potential for wealth creation.
NPS is also highly tax efficient. You can get a tax benefit of up to ₹2 lakh every financial year.
NPS Accounts are of two types – Teir 1 and Teir 2. You must hold a Tier 1 account until retirement, as it does not allow partial withdrawals. Tier 2 account is a voluntary account. You can make withdrawals from it at any given time. You can view your NPS Account transactions in your Account Statement. Know more about the NPS transaction statement below.
