IP EXAM 2023 Question Papers - Exam held on 25/02/2023 & 26/02/2023
Mandatory upload of Withdrawal/ KYC documents to enable Parallel Processing of Exit and Annuity for the benefit of NPS Subscribers.
PFRDA in regulatory collaboration with IRDAI had simplified the process of buying Annuity wherein Annuity Service Providers (ASPs) shall use the NPS withdrawal form submitted at the time of exit by the Subscribers at nodal officers / POPs for issuing Annuity. ASPs are Life Insurance Companies regulated by IRDAI and empanelled with PFRDA to serve NPS Subscribers and secure their old age with regular stream of periodical income. The detailed guidelines and benefits of parallel processing provided vide our circular dt 14th Nov 2022.
2. The common proposal for Exit from NPS and for buying annuity from ASP facilitates parallel processing of Lump sum component and Annuity due to which the time taken by ASPs while issuing Annuity Policies is significantly reduced which result in faster Subscriber servicing and timely Annuity issuance.
3. In the interest of Subscribers and to benefit them with timely payment of annuity income, the upload of the documents shall be mandatory with effect from 1st April 2023. The Subscribers and the associated nodal officers/POPs/ Corporate need to ensure that the following documents uploaded in the respective CRA user interface and the documents thus uploaded are to be legible,
- NPS Exit/ Withdrawal Form
- Proof of Identity and Address as specified in the Withdrawal form
- Bank account Proof
- Copy of PRAN card
The process flow provided at the Annexure for ready reference of stakeholders.
All Nodal offices/ POPs/ Corporate can educate the associated Subscribers about the importance of upload of documents and perform suitable quality checks about the legibility of those documents.

Tax Calculator – Old Regime vis-Ã -vis New Regime as proposed by Finance Bill, 2023 from Income Tax India
Changes in the income tax slabs under the new tax regime
Standard deduction introduced for salaried individuals, pensioners under the new tax regime
- Basic exemption limit hiked to Rs 3 lakh from Rs 2.5 lakh under the new tax regime
- Highest surcharge rate reduced to 25% from 37% under the new tax regime
- Rebate under Section 87A increased to taxable income of Rs 7 lakh under the new tax regime from Rs 5 lakh earlier. This would mean that from FY 2023-24, individuals having taxable incomes up to Rs 7 lakh and opting for the new tax regime will effectively pay zero taxes
The new tax regime would be the default option for taxpayers. However, an individual can choose to opt for the old tax regime.

Do note that these changes will be applicable from April 1, 2023, for FY 2023-24. So, in April, when you submit the investment declarations to your employer for calculation of taxes on salary for FY 2023-24, your employer will assume that you have opted for the new tax regime unless you specify otherwise.
However, while filing income tax returns for FY 2022-23 (ending on March 31, 2023) or AY 2023-24, you will continue to use the existing new income tax regime or old tax regime, depending on what you had chosen.
Here are the income tax slabs for FY 2022-23 that you will need to file income tax return this year.
