Withdrawal and Exit Forms
Accessing NPS money — at superannuation, on premature exit, or in part before exit. Government and Non-Government sectors use separate exit forms because the underlying rules differ.
Normal exit
Exit at & after retirement
For subscribers leaving NPS at superannuation, or deferring the lump sum or annuity purchase.
Continuation / Deferment
Continue contributing beyond superannuation, or defer the lump sum and annuity purchase within the permitted limits.

Exit before superannuation once the minimum period is met. A larger share of the corpus must be annuitised on premature exit.

Sourced from the Protean CRA (NPSCRA) form library. Exit and withdrawal are increasingly processed online with mandatory KYC upload; the physical forms remain the reference for the lump-sum, annuity, and Annuity Service Provider instructions captured at exit.
