NPS

Overview
​National Pension System (formerly known as National Pension Scheme) is an investment cum pension scheme initiated by Government of India to provide old age security and pension to all citizens of India. It is an investment tool that provides market –based returns. Since it offers exposure to both debt and equity instruments, NPS offers attractive returns over the long term. Other advantages of NPS include additional tax benefits and the option to invest, check scheme details and transfer funds online. Equitas Small Finance Bank has been appointed by PFRDA to act as one of the Points of Presence – Sub Entity (POP - SE) for NPS.
