National Pension System (NPS): Are you an NPS account holder, wondering if your investments are actually making money or not? Here is some help for you. NPS is one of the few retirement products that allows you to generate a retirement corpus throughout your working years. Being market-linked, the potential of getting more returns is always there even as there are some risks. NPS is basically a pension-cum-investment scheme run by the Government of India. It is regulated by the government's Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA). NPS comes across as an attractive long-term saving option to help you effectively plan post-retirement financials through the safe and regulated market-based return. 

You can check the rate at which your investments are growing on the official website of National Pension System Trust (http://www.npstrust.org.in). The trust has been established by PFRDA and it is the registered owner of all assets under NPS. Here's a look at how the returns of NPS Scheme - E Tier -1 has been till May 17, 2019.
