5. • Like most other developing countries, India does not have a universal social security
system to protect the elderly against economic deprivation
• As a first step towards instituting pension reforms, Government of India moved from a
defined benefit pension to a defined contribution based pension system for it employees,
which provides investors an option to avail of reasonable market based returns over a long
run
• The Government has introduced the National Pension Scheme (NPS), and made relevant
income tax amendments to make it favorable for corporate sector to offer NPS to their
employees.
• A citizen of India including NRI between 18 – 60 years of age at the time of submission of
NPS application and complied with the KYC (as detailed in the NPS application form) can
join NPS
• NPS is based on a unique Permanent Retirement Account Number (PRAN) which is allotted
to each subscriber by NSDL. Individual who joins NPS is called Subscriber of NPS
