NPS is a market linked scheme

Let us tell you that this scheme currently being run in terms of retirement plan is a market linked scheme. Earlier this scheme was started only for government employees, but after the year 2009, the government started the National Pension Scheme for private sector employees as well. Money is invested in two ways in this. First Tier-1 and Tier-2.

Money is deposited in two parts

NPS Tier-1 is a retirement account, while Tier-2 is a voluntary account. While opening the account, you have to invest Rs 500 in Tier 1. After this, you have to put Rs 1000 in Tier 2. You have to make this contribution in every financial year under all circumstances. You can withdraw 60 percent of the total amount deposited in NPS in lump sum at the time of retirement, while the remaining 40 percent amount goes to the pension scheme. There is no limit on investment in NPS. The higher the annuity amount of 40 percent, the better will be your pension in old age.
