Frequently Asked Questions
What are the withdrawal rules at retirement (age 60) in NPS?
At age 60, up to 60% of the accumulated corpus can be withdrawn as a completely tax-free lump sum. The remaining minimum 40% must be invested with an authorized Annuity Service Provider (ASP) to provide lifelong monthly pension.
What additional tax deduction is available under Section 80CCD(1B)?
Section 80CCD(1B) provides an exclusive tax deduction of up to ₹50,000 for voluntary contributions to NPS Tier-I, which is over and above the ₹1.5 Lakh limit under Section 80C.
Are NPS returns guaranteed by the government?
No. NPS is a market-linked defined-contribution pension scheme where returns depend on the performance of underlying asset classes (Equity - E, Corporate Bonds - C, Government Securities - G, Alternative Assets - A) managed by PFRDA-registered Pension Fund Managers.
