PFRDA Revises NPS Scheme Naming and Display Rules Effective December 1, 2026
The Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) has revised the naming and display rules for National Pension System (NPS) schemes, effective December 1, 2026. The new guidelines remove category codes from scheme names under the Multiple Scheme Framework, requiring a standardized format with the pension fund abbreviation, 'NPS', and a unique scheme name. Point of Presence (PoP) platforms must display schemes from all pension funds within a subscriber's chosen risk category to enhance transparency and ease of comparison for subscribers.
