Government has launched the ‘Pradhan Mantri Vaya
Vandana Yojana (PMVVY)’ to provide social security during old age and to
protect elderly persons aged 60 and above against a future fall in their
interest income due to uncertain market conditions. The scheme enables old age
income security for senior citizens through provision of assured pension/return
linked to the subscription amount based on government guarantee to Life
Insurance Corporation of India (LIC).
The scheme provides an assured return of 8% per
annum for 10 years. The differential return, i.e. the difference between return
generated by LIC and the assured return of 8% per annum would be borne by
Government of India as subsidy on an annual basis. Pension is payable at the
end of each period during the policy tenure of 10 years as per the frequency of
monthly/quarterly/ half-yearly/yearly as chosen by the subscriber at the time
of purchase. Minimum purchase price under the scheme is Rs.1,50,000/- for a
minimum pension of Rs. 1,000/- per month and the maximum purchase price is
Rs.7,50,000/- for a maximum pension of Rs.5,000/- per month. The scheme is
exempted from Goods and Services Tax (GST). The scheme is open for subscription
till 3rd May 2018.
Senior Citizens Savings Scheme, 2014 is a deposit
scheme for individuals who have attained the age of 60 years. However, persons
retiring on superannuation or under any Voluntary Retirement Scheme (VRS) who
have attained the age of 55 years and retiring defense personnel who have

conditions. The upper limit of investment under this Scheme is rupees fifteen
lakh. The rate of interest under the scheme for the quarter 01.01.2018 to
31.03.2018 is 8.3%. The deposits made in the scheme are exempt from income tax
