Subject: Choice for NPS Subscribers to have physical or ePRAN card

NPS Subscribers have hitherto been provided with a physical PRAN (Permanent Retirement Account Number) card along with the welcome kit. In order to give them a choice to optimize the cost i.e. the account opening charges payable to Central Record keeping Agencies (CRAs), it has now been decided that a subscriber may , either opt for physical PRAN card or e-PRAN (PRAN received through e-mail) along with the option to receive welcome kit as well, either physically or through email. The charges by different CRAs can be viewed at http://npstrust.org.in/content/charges-under-nps.
