1. What is NPS Pension Calculation?

The NPS (National Pension System) pension calculation determines your monthly pension based on your accumulated corpus and the prevailing annuity rate. At retirement, you can withdraw up to 60% of the corpus lump sum, and the remaining 40% is used to purchase an annuity that provides regular pension payments.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the NPS pension formula:

\[ Pension = \frac{Corpus \times 40\%}{Annuity\ Rate} \]

Where:

\( Corpus \) — Total accumulated amount in NPS at retirement
\( 40\% \) — Portion of corpus used to buy annuity (mandatory)
\( Annuity\ Rate \) — Current rate offered by annuity providers (per ₹1 lakh)

Explanation: The formula calculates the monthly pension you would receive by using 40% of your corpus to purchase an annuity at the prevailing rate.

3. Importance of Pension Planning

Details: Proper pension planning ensures financial security in retirement. Understanding your potential NPS pension helps in retirement planning and making informed decisions about additional savings needed.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter your expected NPS corpus amount at retirement and the current annuity rate (available from pension providers). The calculator will estimate your monthly pension amount.
