Revised NPS rules for subscribers: PFRDA classifies NPS schemes into five categories; how it will make scheme selection easier for you

NPS subscribers will experience significant changes in pension fund categorization and presentation. A new framework standardizes scheme selection, offering five broad categories for subscribers. Lifecycle schemes will be sub-categorized, while MSF schemes will have five distinct equity exposure levels. The pension body also mandates a new procedure for comparing charges, returns, and risk. This initiative aims to enhance subscriber decision-making regarding their pension investments.
