But the condition is that to buy an annuity plan, at least 80% of the maturity amount has to be reinvested and only 20% of the amount can be withdrawn as a lump sum.

How much to invest in NPS Vatsalya

In the NPS Vatsalya scheme, parents or guardians have to invest at least Rs 1,000 annually. There is no upper limit to invest in this, they can invest as much as they want in this scheme. Therefore, parents will have the flexibility to start with a small amount and increase the investment amount as their child grows up.

In some cases, some money can be withdrawn from the NPS Vatsalya account before your child turns 18. After three years of enrollment, you can withdraw up to 25% of the total contribution amount, you get the facility to withdraw money three times till the child becomes an adult. According to PFRDA guidelines, 25% of the corpus can be withdrawn for education, treatment of critical illnesses, or in case of more than 75% disability.

Subscribers can exit NPS, but the condition is that at least 80% of the corpus has to be reinvested in an annuity plan, while 20% can be withdrawn as a lump sum. If the total amount is less than Rs 2.5 lakh, the entire amount can be withdrawn at once.

Prepare a big retirement fund for your child with NPS Vatsalya Scheme

Let us know how investing in NPS Vatsalya Scheme can help you in raising a big fund for your child by the time he/she turns 18.

Calculation:

Suppose you invest Rs 1,000 per month under this scheme for your child.

Investment period: 18 years
Annual return: 12.86%
Total amount invested in 18 years: Rs 2,16,000 (Rs 1,000 per month x 12 months x 18 years)
Total interest earned on this: Rs 6,32,718
Total amount at the age of 18: Around Rs 8,48,000

Historical Average Return: This rate of 12.86% reflects the historical average since the inception of NPS, which includes a portfolio allocation of 75% in equity and 25% in Government Securities (G-Sec) till July 19, 2024.

As per NPS Vatsalya rules, 80% of the maturity amount (Rs 6,78,400) must be mandatorily reinvested in the annuity scheme, which means only 20% (Rs 1,69,600) can be withdrawn as a lump sum.

This is how you will get Rs 11 crore on retirement

Here’s how an investment of Rs 10,000 every year for 18 years can grow under Different Rates of Return (RoR) (Source: SBI Pension Fund website)

– At age 18: With a RoR of 10%, the deposit amount will be around Rs 5 lakh.

– At age 60: If the same investment is continued till retirement, the corpus can grow to Rs 2.75 crore at 10% RoR and Rs 5.97 crore at a historical average return of 11.59%, which reflects an allocation of 50% equity, 30% corporate debt and 20% government securities as on July 19, 2024.

– With a RoR of 12.86%, this annual investment of Rs 10,000 will grow to Rs 11.05 crore based on a portfolio allocation of 75% equity and 25% government securities.
