Mohanty said that there is merit in joining NPS at a young age to harness the benefit of compounding.

NPS provides continuity to retirement saving accounts irrespective of one’s employment status and is available for non-resident Indians (NRIs), it said.

As youngsters are tech savvy, the facilitation by Zerodha Broking Limited would expand access to NPS, it added.
