The objective of Atal Pension Yojana is to bring every section under the purview of pension. However, the Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) has recommended to the government to increase the maximum age under Atal Pension Yojana (APY).
Under the scheme, after making a fixed contribution to the account every month, after retirement, a monthly pension of Rs 1 thousand to Rs 5 thousand will be available. The government is guaranteeing a lifetime pension of Rs 5000 per month i.e. Rs 60,000 per annum after the age of 60 years after investing only Rs 1239 in every 6 months.
Will have to pay Rs 210 every month
According to the current rules, if at the age of 18 years, a maximum of Rs 5000 is added to the scheme for monthly pension, then you will have to pay Rs 210 every month. If the same money is given every three months, then Rs 626 will have to be given and Rs 1,239 will have to be given if given in six months. To get a pension of Rs 1,000 a month, if you invest at the age of 18, you will have to pay Rs 42 per month.
Joining at a young age will get more benefits
Suppose if you join at the age of 35 for 5 thousand pension, then for 25 years you will have to deposit Rs 5,323 every 6 months. In such a situation, your total investment will be Rs 2.66 lakh, on which you will get a monthly pension of Rs 5 thousand.
