The National Pension System which is regulated and administered by the PFRDA seeks to provide retirement benefits to all citizens of India, including the unorganised sector workers. It is a defined, voluntary contribution scheme that is market-linked and managed by professional fund managers. Subscribers also have an option to exit this plan before retirement or opt for superannuation. However, this scheme ensures that a part of savings is utilised to provide a subscriber with retirement benefits. NPS not only allows them to fullfil their retirement expenses but also allows them to sail through their post-retirement life with the least hassles. Hence, the researcher attempts to identify the subscriber’s interest towards NPS investment.
