Administered by the Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA), NPS is a voluntary, market-linked contribution scheme managed by professional fund managers.
Upon retirement or exit, at least 40% of the contribution is used to buy an annuity for a lifetime pension, while the rest is given as a lump sum.
