Actually, the central government is going to relax the process of deposit or investment under the small savings scheme. The purpose of this relaxation is to connect a large number of people with small savings schemes. The people of rural India will be benefited the most.

What is going to change

According to media report, an official associated with the Finance Ministry said that first of all people will be allowed to invest in small savings schemes using Aadhaar instead of PAN card. This exemption will encourage people in rural areas to take advantage of small savings schemes. Let us tell you that a large number of people in India have Aadhaar cards as compared to PAN cards.

KYC norms for small savings schemes have been prescribed for Jan Dhan accounts. Apart from this, the government will also simplify the process related to the claim on the deposit amount of the deceased investor so that there is no dispute. Apart from this, the nomination process will be further simplified.

Interest rate to be decided
