Union Bank of India NPS

Listen to our Podcast: Grow your wealth and keep it secure.

0:00 / 0:00

Being a well-known and trusted establishment, the Union Bank of India is owned by the Government of India. The bank has gone through a recent merger with Andhra Bank and Corporation Bank. This has enabled the bank to provide a seamless and all-encompassing banking experience for the customers of all three banks.

Of the several financial services it offers, Union Bank of India also provides the National Pension System (NPS) which is a great option for you to start investing in to secure your post-retirement life. You could be a new bank customer or one who already has an account in the bank. Either way, the process of investing in NPS is very simple with the backing of the Union Bank of India. 

What is the National Pension Scheme?

With the help of the National Pension System or NPS, which is a long-term investment option, investors can build a solid retirement fund. As a result, they will be able to better secure their future post-retirement when they get a steady pension when their NPS investment matures.

The NPS scheme is linked to the market which increases the potential of the investment to grow in line with market movements while investors build a robust, inflation-adjusted retirement corpus. 

Union Bank of India NPS

If you are looking to invest in the NPS scheme, you can easily do it with the help of the Union Bank of India. This is mainly due to the fact that it has been appointed by the Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) as a Point of Presence (POP) to facilitate NPS investments. This applies to both new and existing customers. 

You can invest in two different ways; online and offline, For the online method, you have to visit Union Bank’s NPS portal, fill out the online registration form, choose whether you want to register using your Aadhaar or PAN card, scan all the documents asked for and finish by eSigining. 

For the offline method, visit your nearest UBI branch that is an authorized POP Service Provider, fill out the NPS subscriber registration form and contribution slip, attach your KYC documents for verification, pay any bank charges and your first contribution amount and once the bank verifies all these details, your account will be active. 

Eligibility Criteria for Opening a UBI NPS Account 

Listed below are the eligibility criteria to open a UBI NPS account:

  • You need to be a citizen of India, whether resident, NRI or OCI.

  • Your age should be between 18 and 70 years on the date that you are applying for the NPS account.

Why Invest in the Union Bank of India NPS scheme?   

If you are planning to start an NPS accout with UBI, it is important to understand why the account can prove to be beneficial. 

With the help of an NPS account with UBI, you can easily build a robust retirement corpus for yourself. However, you need to remember to contribute regularly to keep the account active, with a minimum of one contribution per year in both Tier I and Tier II accounts. With these contributions, you would be able to build a good safety net to help you in your post-retirement days. 

NPS also provides you with several tax benefits like deductions up to ₹1.5 lakh under Section 80CCD (1) (part of 80C benefits), an extra ₹50,000 deduction under Section 80CCD (1B) and the provision to claim a 10% deduction on your base salary + DA if your employer contributes to your NPS. Even when the account matures, you can withdraw up to 60%of  the corpus without it being taxed. 

Since NPS is dependent on market trends, the potential to generate higher gains is greater.  These returns are inflation-adjusted returns resulting in them keeping up with the rising costs.

Upon maturity, investors will also receive guaranteed pensions for life, thus helping them live stress-free and secure life after retirement. 

Conclusion:

The NPS scheme is a flexible and affordable scheme that offers higher returns due to its connection with the market. It offers a secure way for one to live post-retirement as long as investors remember to contribute to the account at least once a year.
