New Pension Scheme

Viewed 2288

Dear Mr Batra

As per 80CCE(2) contribution of the Employer to an Employee's NPS account is not considered for calculation of Tax.

Please let me know :

  1. whether both employer and employee have to contribute equal amount or only Employer can contribute also.

  2. Since already half of the financial year has completed, can a employer contribute to NPS for the Period of April to August for an employee in service during that period.

I would much appreciate your immediate reply

With regards

Unlike EPF, new pension scheme does not have much limitations on employer/employee contribution as of now. But employer contribution upto maximum 10% of salary (basic+DA) is allowed to be not considered as a part of salary.

As per my knowledge, employer can deposit contribution for previous months in same financial year too.
