Suggest best pension plan to invest in

Hi, I am thinking of buying a pension plan through which I could get a good fixed monthly income after I retire ( let's assume 60 years). I am currently 32 year old and looking to invest around 20k per month. I am currently working with a startup.I first thought about NPS and also some plans on Policybazar. I founds that plans mentioned on Policybazar like Tata AIA life insurance capital guarantee solution can offer upto 6.5L/month tax free income after I turn 60 with just 20K investment per month for next 12 years. Where as if I invest 20 k per month in NPS till i turn 60 I will only get 1.8 lakhs per month

I want to understand

  1. Why is there such a huge gap in the return amount between NPS and retirement plans available on policybazar
  2. How to select the best retirement plan
  3. What are the top pension plans available in the market currently
  4. Any other better way to plan retirement

Pension Plans are a bad idea. Ask them to show you a calculation of the RoI over the years.

I'd be surprised if it's anything above 6%. It's one of the worst products on the market.

Talk to a good financial planner. Build a diversified asset portfolio - 60 Equity: 40 Debt. Keep pumping in money and rebalance annually.

You'll have enough monthly withdrawable via this corpus.

You'll barely meet inflation with the pension plan. You'll have inadequate insurance cover. It has inadequate tax benefits (if thats what you are looking for).

It's an old product with mixes insurance and investing - costs are higher vs you doing those two financial goals independently.

NPS is very good. You can consider. You don't necessarily need pension plans to plan your retirement. You can plan it through SWP in mutual funds, participating plans etc too. Retirement and health insurance planning are complicated. Have a holistic plan instead of thinking too much about pension. You can use NPS for annuity plans too during maturity. Contact a CFP, certified financial planner or if you want to mail me, SreekanthAdvisory@gmail.com. I'm an IRDAI insurance advisor and NISM certified mutual fund distributor.
