Why HUFs Are Not Eligible
The National Pension System is designed for individual citizens of India, whether they are salaried employees or self-employed professionals. According to PFRDA guidelines, only individuals—whether they be citizens of India or Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) between the ages of 18 to 70—are allowed to subscribe to the NPS.
An HUF, on the other hand, is a separate legal entity recognized under Indian law, created for the purpose of managing family assets.
