All credit card companies now scrutinising large value nps transactions & many start considering them as business transactions not eligible for any rewards.

What regular time, start a sip in any good/top rated large cap MF & check once in 6 months. Top large cap MF kaa last 10-15 years kaa annualized return aur absolute return check kar liya karo pehle. rolleyes

Aur jyaada amount ki fd karwaaoge non earning 18+ members ki family mein toh IT dept kaa notice aa jaayega kyunki ismein bhi rules hote hain.

Axis fk card. 1.5% less 0.9% charges.

Those who are in 30% tax slab, must invest in it. Future tax ki mat socho, abhi 15k bach rahe hai wo socho grin

What is the best mode to open an account directly or via any banks?

open directly, as if open via bank they will charge a little bit more as their own fee gets added to it.

Good discussion about NPS, let me share my thoughts about NPS investment.

It actually good for people who are in 30% bracket, because if you invest 50000/- in NPS then you can save 15000/- for tax.

So invest these 15000/- in mutual fund as you saved it by investing in NPS.

Monthly SIP in NPS: 4200/- approx
Monthly SIP in MF: 1250/- approx

Continue your investment until your age 50 or 60, and see the result.

I agree with this.
Any financial adviser will advise a person to move away from equity mf when he is near to his retirement, because no one would want to put his money in volatile market. NPS and Pf makes sure you have a income if market collapsed. Don’t plan future with no uncertainty. no one thought a corona virus pandemic will occur and if retired person would have put money in mf and he needed large sum for hospitality then where would he go ?. Like this any thing can happen so don’t go for greed in return.

NPS sucks as an investment like some of the others pointed out, APY is better..and noob calculation about the NPS outcome, it’s taxable you loose butt load of money in taxes…. Better to stay with equity or index MFs or stocks.. even with LTCG works out cheaper and better returns..

Benevolent Benevolent

Actually between APY and NPS, APY is worse.
And for someone in 30% tax bracket, NPS gives more than 25% annual return, which actually beats most MF, out of which 60% is tax free and the remaining with deferred tax liability and marginal rate, to be invested in annuity. The annuity rates of NPS are higher than all annuities available in the market.
So as on date, NPS is the best possible post retirement plan available in India other than investing in real estate.

Is there a way we can utilize flutuations in market.. ?? in NPS..
Like if someone had invested and NAV was 20 now if NAV chnages to 30.. it shows u got 50% profit.. but this is not real profit.
ACtual NAV value will be atretirement.. which might be say lesser than 20 too.??

SO can we somehow make advantage of his chnaged NAV value at present.. like re-investing or chnaging fund manager.. or chnaging % of contributions in NPS to E G or C…

Sorry for digging out an old thread.

Isn’t NPS useful for anyone falling under the 30% tax bracket? The 50k we invest per year (to avail max benefit) will straight away help save 30% as taxes not paid on it so effectively one invests 35k only and yet reap benefits over a long term. Is it correct to think this way?

Of course..It is worth no doubt in that..
