NPS Account: The National Pension System, or NPS, a pension programme introduced by the Indian government, is fairly simple to invest in. If you want to register an NPS account with SBI, you may do it quickly and effortlessly from your home using the YONO SBI app. Remember that you cannot open more than one NPS account.
What is NPS
The term “National Pension System” (NPS) refers to the contributory pension system in which a subscriber’s contributions are gathered and accumulated in a personal retirement account, or PRAN, using a network of points of presence, a centralised recordkeeping agency, and any pension funds that may be specified by regulations.
How NPS Works
A Permanent Retirement Account Number (PRAN) is given to the subscriber upon successful National Pension System membership. When a PRAN is generated, NSDL-CRA (Central Record Keeping Agency) sends an SMS alert and an email alert to the subscribers’ registered email addresses and mobile numbers. To build up assets for retirement, subscribers periodically and consistently make payments to NPS during their working lives. The fund is made accessible to the subscriber at retirement or exit from the plan on the condition that a portion of the fund will be invested annually to give him a monthly pension following retirement or exit from the plan.
