New NPS Login Rules From April 1:
The Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) has rolled out an important update to the National Pension System (NPS) as we step into the new financial year (FY2024–'25). Starting from April 1, there are new rules in place to make the NPS more secure for all users.
What's NPS?
NPS is a great way to invest for retirement, and now it's open to all Indian citizens voluntarily, not just central government employees.

Now, when you log into the CRA system, you'll need to go through a two-factor Aadhaar-based authentication process. This extra layer of security kicks in on April 1. It's designed to protect your interests and keep your NPS account safe.
Here's a step-by-step guide on how to use the new Aadhaar authentication:
Step 1: Visit the NPS website: https://enps.nsdl.com/eNPS/NationalPensionSystem.html
Step 2: Click on ‘Login with PRAIN/IPIN’ and go to the PRAIN/IPIN tab.
Step 3: Enter your user ID and password in the new window that opens.
Step 4: Complete the Captcha, and the window will prompt for Aadhaar authentication.
Step 5: An OTP will be sent to your registered mobile number.
Step 6: Enter the OTP, and voila! You're in your NPS account securely.
That's it! These steps ensure your NPS account stays safe and accessible. So, next time you log in, remember to use the new Aadhaar authentication for added security.
