Rules change from 1 October: Some changes are made in the rules on the first date of every month. In this sequence, some rules are going to change in the first date of October. Today, we are going to give this information about this through this news.
People associated with non-government sector benefit more
First of all, the Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) has announced a major improvement in the National Pension System (NPS), which will be applicable from October 1, 2025. This new rule, made in the name of multiple scheme framework, will be more beneficial for subscribers associated with non-government sector.
Actually, PFRDA released a draft on 16 September 2025, which mentioned the changes related to NPS. Its purpose is to make NPS especially more flexible and convenient for people associated with non-government sector. These include corporate professionals and gig workers.
Change in charge of pension schemes
PFRDA has changed the fees charged by Central RecordCipping Agencies for pension schemes like National Pension System (NPS), Atal Pension Yojana (APY), Unified Pension Scheme (UPS) and NPS Light. Under this, on opening PRAN (Permanent Retirement Account Number), government employees will now have to pay Rs 18 for E-PRAN kit and Rs 40 for offline PRAN card. No fee will be charged from the zero amount account nor any additional fees will be charged on the transaction.
Investment in multiple scheme from a pan
Another rule has been changed to make NPS more simplified. Where the first NPS was allowed to invest in only one scheme from a PAN number. At the same time, now under the Multiple Scheme Framework (MSF), you will be able to invest money in many different schemes.
With this, NPS subscribers will be able to earn more profits in their pension funds by investing in different schemes according to their need and their needs. If your capacity to take risks is high, then you can invest in high risk schemes. In this, you will be given an option to invest in equity up to 100 percent. If you want to take low risk, then you will be able to invest in medium risk scheme. In every scheme you will be given two options so that you can choose them according to your choice and ability.
Entry-exit limit
The regulator has also proposed extensive amendments in the exit rules under NPS. These include redefining the word “exhaust” to include landscapes such as NPS Vatsalya and citizenship renunciation, increase age limit for entry and exit, and end the need for prior notice to postpone annuity or lump sum.
The definition of Exit will also be changed under the change in rules. Provisions of separate exit will be fixed for NPS Vatsalya and Non-Government Pension Scheme. The age limit for entry and exit will be increased, the limit of Lumpmas withdrawal will be increased and automatic continuination will also be available.
Online gaming rules will be effective from October 1
Union Information and Technology Minister Ashwini Vaishnav said on Thursday that new rules related to online gaming will be applicable from October 1. He said, “We have been associated with this industry for almost three years. After the law was enacted, we have started dialogue with all the stakeholders including gaming companies, banks and other related institutions.
He informed that a final round will be discussed with all the stakeholders associated with the industry before the law is implemented. He said, “If the industry feels that they need more time, then we are ready to consider it. Our government practically believes in a high counseling process for every work.” Let us know that the online gaming act was approved by President Draupadi Murmu on 22 August 2025.
