Employees Provident Fund (EPF), Public Provident Fund (PPF) and National Pension System (NPS) are three such schemes which provide benefits in different ways. EPF and PPF offer fixed and secured interest, whereas NPS provides an opportunity for equity-linked investment , which can increase returns significantly in the long run.
