Indian Bank NPS Calculator is a tool that enables customers to estimate the amount of pension benefits from the National Pension Scheme. For government NPS subscribers, up to 60% of the final maturity amount can be withdrawn as a lump sum, while the remaining 40% must be invested in annuity plans to receive a monthly pension. For non-government subscribers, withdrawal limits are governed by the latest NPS exit rules.
The calculator helps you to calculate the sum of money you would likely have at retirement based on the amount contributed, duration of investment, and the assumed rate of return. It also estimates the monthly pension through the application of standard annuity allocation rules at retirement.
How Does the Indian Bank NPS Calculator Work?
The Indian Bank NPS Calculator works on the principle of compound growth to estimate long-term retirement savings. It calculates how regular contributions grow over time based on an assumed rate of return and investment duration.
The calculator applies the standard compound interest formula:
The NPS calculator works on the basis of the following formula
FV = P (1 + r/n) ^ nt
Here,
FV
Final Value
P
Principal Sum
r
Rate of interest per annum
n
Total number of times the interest compounds
t
Tenure
Consider an investor who is planning to retire under the National Pension System (NPS).
The investor starts his investment at the age of 35 and will retire when he is 60. There is a contribution of ₹6,500 every month with a supposed annual growth of 8.5%.
So,
Investment Duration: 25 years
Total Contribution: ₹6,500 × 12 × 25 = ₹19,50,000
The estimated amount of the retirement fund after this period would be around ₹70 lakh to ₹75 lakh through long-term compounding.
At retirement, government NPS subscribers may withdraw up to 60% of the corpus as a lump sum, which is approximately ₹42 - 45 lakh. The other 40% or ₹28 - 30 lakh will go to the purchase of an annuity.
Depending upon the current level of annuity rates and the option taken, the annuity may offer a monthly pension ranging between ₹14,000 - ₹17,000.
Note: Withdrawal proportions for non-government subscribers may differ as per prevailing NPS exit norms.
To calculate your projected retirement corpus and pension benefits on the NPS calculator, follow the steps below:
Step 1: Enter Your Current Age - Choose your current age to set the starting point of investment.
Step 2: Choose Your Retirement Age - Select the age at which you will retire in order to calculate the number of years that you will invest.
Step 3: Add Your NPS Contribution Amount - Enter the amount that you plan to contribute to the National Pension System monthly or annually.
Step 4: Select the Expected Rate of Return - Choose an assumed annual rate of return on the basis of the long-term trends in the performance of the NPS.
Step 5: Set the Annuity Allocation Percentage - Determine how much retirement corpus will be used to purchase an annuity.
Step 6: Review the Projected Results - See the projected corpus of retirement, lump-sum withdrawal, value of annuity, and projected monthly pension.
