Why Corporate NPS

Value for employees. Advantage for employers.

Corporate NPS connects employee retirement readiness with a practical, tax-efficient workplace benefit.

NEW New tax regime

Under Section 80CCD(2), employer contributions to an employee’s Tier-I NPS are deductible up to 14% of salary, and may also count as a business expense — subject to conditions.

14%of salary

Tax benefits are subject to the Income-tax Act, applicable limits, contribution structure and the employee’s tax regime. Current provisions should be verified before implementation.

The essentials

What is Corporate NPS?

Corporate NPS is an employer-facilitated retirement solution that allows eligible employees to contribute to their individual NPS accounts through the organisation’s payroll process.

For organisations

Suitable for employers seeking to add a structured retirement benefit for eligible employees.

Individual ownership

Each employee contributes to an individual PRAN that remains linked to the subscriber.

Payroll contributions

Contributions may be facilitated through payroll under the organisation’s adopted policy.

Portable account

The same PRAN can generally continue when the employee changes organisation or location.

Contribution flexibility

Choose a structure that fits your policy

The organisation can define who contributes and how contributions are facilitated, subject to the applicable NPS and tax rules.

Employer contribution

The employer may contribute to eligible employees’ NPS accounts as part of the organisation’s benefits policy.

+

Employee contribution

Employees may contribute through payroll and may also continue contributions under the applicable NPS process.

New-regime tax benefit

Employer contribution to Tier-I NPS may qualify for deduction under Section 80CCD(2), including under the new tax regime, subject to prescribed limits.

Tax treatment depends on the prevailing law, the employee’s tax regime and the contribution structure adopted by the organisation. Current rules should be verified before implementation.
