NPS Central Launched: Manage Your Pension in 1 Place

PFRDA launched NPS Central, a single digital platform where NPS subscribers can view, manage, and track their pension contributions across all three CRAs without logging into separate portals.

Here's what happened: PFRDA launched NPS Central, a unified digital platform letting subscribers manage their NPS accounts across all three CRAs — NSDL, KFintech, and CAMSonline — from one interface using their PRAN.. Subscribers can now track contributions, check fund performance and NAV, update personal details, change investment allocation, and raise service requests without needing CRA-specific logins.. The platform addresses a long-standing pain point for salaried employees who switched jobs and found their NPS history fragmented across different CRAs assigned by different employers..

What you should do: Log in to NPS Central using your PRAN and verify that your nominee details are up to date — many subscribers set nominees at onboarding years ago and never updated them after marriage or having children.. Check your current asset allocation (Equity/Corporate Bond/Government Securities split) on the platform — if you enrolled years ago, your default allocation may not match your current age and risk profile.. If you have changed jobs, confirm that all your previous employer's contributions have been credited and that your account is mapped correctly across CRAs — discrepancies can be flagged and resolved through the same portal..

If you are under 50, you can actively choose the Active Choice option on NPS Central and push up to 75% of your corpus into equities — the default auto-choice is far more conservative and can meaningfully reduce your long-term retirement corpus.
