NPS Vatsalya is a new pension plan for children. Parents or guardians can start saving for their child's future from a young age. When the child turns 18, the account will change to a regular National Pension Scheme (NPS) account, continuing the savings.

National Pension Scheme (NPS) is a way for everyone in India, including those living abroad, to save money for retirement. It's a choice where you regularly put money into your pension fund, and you get some tax benefits.

Tax Benefits of NPS:

  • For employees: You can get a tax break up to 10% of your salary (basic pay + allowances) under section 80 CCD(1) within the overall Rs. 1.5 lakh limit.
  • For employer contributions: If your employer contributes to your NPS, you can get a tax break up to 10% of your salary (14% if the Central Government is the employer) under Section 80 CCD(2) beyond the Rs. 1.5 lakh limit.

How to Open an NPS Account:

  1. Visit the official eNPS website or a bank's website that offers NPS.
  2. Click on ‘Registration’ and choose ‘new registration’.
  3. Provide your Aadhaar or PAN number, mobile number, and email ID.
  4. Choose one of three agencies to manage your account.
  5. Complete the process by entering your details and verifying with an OTP.
