Early Retirement Planning Gains Importance Amid Rising Healthcare Costs in India
Retirement planning in India is increasingly important as the population aged 60 and above is projected to exceed 20% by 2050. Experts emphasize starting early to benefit from compounding returns and accounting for inflation, healthcare costs, and lifestyle changes. A recent study shows rising preference for the National Pension System, with many targeting a retirement corpus of around ₹1.5 crore, though this remains below recommended levels. Health concerns motivate planning, while complacency and a false sense of readiness delay savings for some.
