CIRCULAR

CIR No.: PFRDA/2020/18/SUP-CRA/7

Date: May 27 2020

To,
All stakeholders under National Pension System (NPS)

Subject: Additional Modes of e-NPS exit

eNPS offers ease of online opening of NPS account in a paperless manner. Henceforth, it has been decided to provide additional option to e-NPS subscribers to exit also from NPS through an online process. This option of exit shall be applicable for both i.e. for pre-mature as well as normal exit, in terms of provisions of the PFRDA (Exit and Withdrawal under National Pension System) Regulations 2015. The process would be implemented shortly.

2. Under the existing offline process, the e-NPS subscriber has to approach the Bank-Point of Presence (POP) to get his withdrawal request processed by shifting his NPS account through Inter-Sector Shifting (ISS) from ‘e NPS’ to the ‘Bank- POP’. Thereafter the NPS withdrawal forms along with the specified documents are required to be submitted to the Bank-POP for authorization, to enable CRA toproceed with the exit process.

3. The proposed online process of e-NPS exit would be akin to the existing online e-NPS platform already in use for opening NPS accounts by customers of Bank-POPs. In the proposed online exit process, the KYC of e-NPS subscribers shall be verified by the respective Bank POPs where these subscribers have their existing banking relationship. Banks shall also be eligible for payment of processing fees.

4. Central Record Keeping Agencies (CRAs) have been advised to develop online ‘e NPS exit functionality’ in co-ordination with Banks to facilitate the online process of exit of e NPS subscribers who are also the customers of those Banks. The process flow is provided at the Annexure A and B. The claims arising due to death of NPS Subscribers shall be handled off line by NPS Trust.

5. This circular is issued in exercise of powers conferred under section 14 of PFRDA Act 2013 and is available at PFRDA’s website (www.pfraa.org.in) under the Regulatory framework and in “Circular” sections of CRA, POPs and NPST under intermediaries.
