    The Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) is seeking income tax exemption for the new pension scheme - just like the Public Provident Fund (PPF).

    The new pension scheme is taxed at the time of withdrawal, even when it is a 30-35 years investment instrument. (Comepare this with PPF, which is an exempt-exempt-exempt scheme - there is no income tax at any stage).

    This, when the new pension scheme is compulsory for the subscribers - unlike PPF, which is a voluntary scheme.

    What do you feel - is this correct and fair? Would love to hear your opinion.
