NPS - How much to Invest?

  Though the deduction offered under Section 80CCD (1B) is `50,000 , it is not advisable to put the entire amount at one go. It is best to stagger your investments across several months, much like the SIP strategy in a mutual fund. However, don't make too many small contributions. There is a transaction charge of 0.25% or `20 (whichever is higher) on every contribution. If you invest `500-1,000 every month, you pay `20 per contribution, which works out to 2-4%. Invest at least `5,000-10,000 at one go. Remember, at most `2,500-5,000 of this will go into equities if you have chosen the maximum 50% allocation to stocks. The rest will flow into corporate bonds and gilt funds as per your desired allocation. Best Tax Saver Mutual Funds or ELSS Mutual Funds for 2015 1. ICICI Prudential Tax Plan 2.

EPF or NPS - Why not both?

  In the Budget, Jaitley also empowered the corporate employees to choose between the EPF and the NPS. The details are awaited but this could be a big change in the way Indians save for retirement. However, your employer must be ready to shift to the NPS as well. Should you shift to NPS if it is allowed? Experts say you should opt for both . NPS offered by corporates now is additional to the EPF , so the same structure should continue in future also. However, much will depend on the rules and whether employers and the Labour Ministry will embrace the change.     Best Tax Saver Mutual Funds or ELSS Mutual Funds for 2015 1.
