How to Check Your NPS Balance Online

Your retirement plan deserves regular health checks—and tracking your National Pension System (NPS) balance is a great way to do that. Thankfully, with digital tools now available, you don’t need to visit a branch or fill out lengthy forms to access your NPS details.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through simple and quick ways to check your NPS balance online. Additionally, we’ll explain how complementing your NPS investments with Bajaj Finance Fixed Deposits (FDs) can help you secure your retirement with guaranteed returns, check latest rates. 

The National Pension System (NPS) is a government-backed voluntary retirement savings scheme open to Indian citizens and NRIs. It operates on a defined-contribution model where your investments are directed toward market-linked instruments, managed by professional fund managers under the oversight of the Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA).

NPS offers tax benefits, flexibility in asset allocation, and the potential for long-term wealth creation. However, since returns are market-driven, they are not guaranteed.
