December 11, 2023

LAST fortnight, I concluded my last column suggesting about the urgent need for retirees to avoid the Chinese Curse of outliving their money. In this column, let us look at some options available to retirees to avoid that ignominy.

The Government's National Pension Scheme (NPS) is emerging as a popular avenue for Retirement planning though it may still undergo a few more iterations before settling down. It is also capped in terms of providing an additional Tax break.
