NPS Calculator (National Pension System) FAQs

What return should I use?
NPS returns depend on the mix of equity, corporate bonds and government securities you choose. A cautious figure is 8 to 9%, a moderate one is 10%. Because nothing is guaranteed, try two or three values and plan around the lower one.
What is the annuity share for?
When you retire, part of the corpus has to be used to buy an annuity, which pays you a monthly pension for life. The rest you can take as a lump sum. The minimum annuity share depends on your category and on PFRDA rules, which have been updated recently, so confirm the current rule.
Is NPS tax-saving?
Contributions can give you tax deductions under the old regime, and your employer's contribution to NPS can be deducted under the new regime too, within limits. Exact limits change, so check the latest rules or ask a tax advisor.
