In a major relief to subscribers of the National Pension Scheme (NPS), the Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) has cut down the time period for partial withdrawals subject to certain contingencies. NPS subscribers who have contributed for three years can now withdraw up to 25 per cent of the corpus, as per PFRDA's latest circular. Earlier, the partial withdrawal was allowed only after completion of 10 years of subscription

It has, however, tweaked its focus and reduced exposure in midcaps as they were commanding a high premium. The strategy seems to have worked as it returned a 22% gain last year. Religare Tax Plan has outperformed BSE 100...
