As per the updated rules, NPS subscribers cannot withdraw more than 25 per cent of their contributions to their individual pension account excluding the employer’s contribution.
The process to open an National Pension Scheme (NPS) account has been made easier by Pension Fund and Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA). Further subscribers who have not updated their signature and photo in their accounts are now to be provided an online facility to upload one. Presently there are two CRAs in NPS: NSDL and Karvy.
