National Pension Scheme: If you invest in NPS then there is good news for you. The Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) is going to implement the T+0 settlement system for NPS holders.

This means that now the NPS contributions received by the Trustee Bank till 11 am (T) on any settlement day will be invested on the same day. This will give NPS investors the benefit of the Net Asset Value (NAV) of the same day.

Till now investment was done on a T+1 basis

According to the statement, till now the settlement of investments received by the Trustee Bank was done the next day (T+1).

This means that the contributions received a day before were invested the next day. PFRDA said that the contributions received till 9:30 am on any settlement day were already considered for investment on the same day.

Now, the contribution amount received till 11 am will also be invested with the NAV applicable on the same day.

Customers will get more benefits than before

According to the new statement, PFRDA has been advised the ‘Point of Presence’ (POP), Nodal Office, and NPS Trust for e-NPS to definitely make their NPS operations in line with the different revised timeline.

This will benefit the customers in the right way. Earlier the money deposited was invested on the next business day (T + 1), which caused a difference of one day.

Investment in NPS will be easier and faster than before
