But retirement makes you reevaluate it. How does NPS pay after 60 years? Can this NPS corpus be converted into a steady monthly income, supporting your lifestyle during retirement? NPS&#8217; Retirement Income Scheme is its resolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under NPS withdrawal rules, at least \u20b920 lakh must be used to buy an annuity, giving you a fixed pension for life. The remaining \u20b980 lakh comes to you as a lump sum. While it is your money, deciding how to use it wisely can feel overwhelming. Withdraw too much, and the corpus may not last; leave it untouched, it forgoes the compounding opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PFRDA&#8217;s Retirement Income Schemes (RIS) aims to solve this dilemma by converting the corpus into a regular income stream while keeping the balance invested for potential growth. And we will show you how RIS works with a worked example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What NPS retirement income schemes do for your \u20b980 lakh<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Retirement Income Scheme\u2019 is a lifecycle fund inside NPS, called RIS Steady, built for the retirement years. It holds 35% in equity at 60 and eases to 10% by 75, so the corpus keeps earning while you draw on it. The scheme applies to retirees who wish to leave their lump sum inside NPS rather than withdraw it in full.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taken in cash, \u20b980 lakh becomes a 25-year responsibility. You need to decide where to park the money and how to generate a steady income from it. Fixed deposits may offer stability, but their returns may not always keep pace with inflation. Other fixed-income options, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/1finance.co.in\/blog\/risks-of-debt-mutual-funds\/\">debt mutual funds<\/a>, can provide additional flexibility, but they too face inflation and interest-rate risks over long retirement periods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Across 25 years, these decisions play a major role in determining how long your corpus lasts. Managing them can also become more challenging with age. The same person who carefully managed investments during their working years may find it increasingly burdensome to do so in their 70s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/1finance.co.in\/blog\/retirement-income-scheme-nps-withdrawal-rules\/\">Retirement Income Scheme (RIS)<\/a> is built to take most of that off your hands. The corpus stays inside NPS, the fund rebalances itself along the lifecycle glide path, and the withdrawal rate is set each year by a formula instead of a fresh decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-custom-also-read also-read\"><em>Also read: <a href=\"https:\/\/1finance.co.in\/retirement-planning\/nps-calculator\">Know your 80:20 lump-sum-to-annuity split with 1 Finance NPS Calculator.

This determines how much of the corpus can be withdrawn each year while the balance remains invested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The default method is the Systematic Payout Rate (SPR). Here, the annual payout is linked to the years remaining until age 85. At age 60, with 25 years left, the payout rate works out to 1\/25, or 4%. Applied to an \u20b980 lakh corpus, the first year&#8217;s payout looks like this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>RIS payout for the first year, at age 60<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\" data-first-row-heading=\"true\"><table><thead><tr><th><strong>Step<\/strong><\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Figure<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Lump sum in RIS<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">&#8377;80,00,000<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Years left to 85 (at age 60)<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">25<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Payout rate (1\/25)<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">4%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Payout for the year (4% of &#8377;80 lakh)<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">&#8377;3,20,000<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Monthly income (divide by 12)<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">&#8377;26,667<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Source: PFRDA circular dated May 15th, 2026.

Each year thereafter, the payout rate rises because the years remaining to age 85 fall by one. If the corpus also earns investment returns, the monthly income rises further. Assuming RIS Steady earns a steady 8% a year, the progression would look like what&#8217;s mentioned in the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the early years, the 8% return is higher than the SPR (4% up to age 64). As a result, even after you receive monthly payouts, the corpus continues to grow. That&#8217;s why the monthly income at age 65 is calculated on a larger corpus than the original \u20b980 lakh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Assumption: RIS earns a steady 8% a year on \u20b980 lakh under the Systematic Payout Rate (SPR) route<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Your age<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Opening corpus<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">8% return<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">SPR rate that year<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Approx. monthly income<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Closing corpus*<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">60<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b980 lakh<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b96.4 lakh<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">4.%<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b926,667<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b983.2 lakh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">65<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b997.33 lak0h<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b97.79 lakh<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">5.%<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b940,556<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b91 crore<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">70<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b91.06 crore<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b98.45 lakh<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">6.7%<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b959,200<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b91.08 crore<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">75<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b91.05 crore<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b98.4 lakh<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">10%<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b987,500<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b91.03 crore<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">80<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b973.8 lakh<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b95.9 lakh<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">20%<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b91,23,000<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b965 lakh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">85<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b931.8 lakh<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b92.54 lakh<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">100%<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b92,65,000<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u20b90<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Source: SPR formula, PFRDA circular dated May 15th, 2026.

At an assumed annuity rate of 6.5%, \u20b980 lakh would generate about \u20b95.2 lakh a year, or roughly \u20b943,000 a month, for life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The comparison highlights the trade-off. The annuity starts with a higher and guaranteed income. RIS starts lower, at about \u20b926,667 a month under the SPR route, but allows the corpus to remain invested and gives payouts the potential to grow over time. However, the second annuity stays constant at ~\u20b943,000 per month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the illustration above, the payout from a retirement income scheme overtakes the annuity around the sixth or seventh year and continues to rise thereafter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-custom-also-read also-read\"><em>Also read: <a href=\"https:\/\/1finance.co.in\/retirement-planning\/retirement-planning-in-india-2026-survey\/\">Retirement planning in India 2026: Why 75% of Indians are not prepared<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Plan your NPS lump sum with a Qualified Financial Advisor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u20b980 lakh lump sum may be one of the largest financial assets you will manage in retirement.
