PFRDA adds NPS Tatkal on PhonePe and BHIM
In short
PFRDA has put NPS Tatkal on PhonePe and BHIM.
Eligible users can open a National Pension System account in three steps. The report does not give the minimum contribution amount, so users still need to check the full rules before joining.
What the reporting says
PFRDA has made the NPS Tatkal facility available on PhonePe and BHIM, allowing eligible users to open a National Pension System account in three steps, according to a Mint Money summary. The reporting says the digital registration process, minimum contribution and other investor details are being explained, but it does not state the contribution amount. The immediate effect is broader online access to NPS onboarding, though eligibility and exact funding rules still need checking.
