Why NPS is a Bad investment Product ?

Is NPS really good for investment!!!! What is NPS? It is National Pension Saving scheme introduced by govt …. The rules are so complex beyond the understanding of common man. After communicating many people I got to know they only invest in this because Govt is sponsoring this …. If at all NPS invests in Stocks since Govt sponsoring this , so it might be safe and guaranteed to invest  in this J --- Many people thinks, who stay away from mutual funds because it is stock market dependent :D Let me tell you NPS will not provide annuity . The aim of NPS is to provide you corpus. you need to buy one from the insurer’s . The lists are as here NPS is not giving you any guaranteed returns like EPF or PPF.

After seeing the current quarter results of banks, now I think I must have written this blog long back. If few investor read this blog 3-4 months back , they would not have lost their hard earned money by investing in banks at peak!!!  It really happened to each and every bank is now and they are giving true picture of NPA after RBI come with a stick. The banking sector growth (PAT) had been declined by 14.1% as per RBI Financial Stability Report (Issue No 11, June 2015) Extracted From PWC Banking Analysis.
