Laws and sections by number or title, due dates, pages, and updates.
Subscribers of NPS Lite or Swavalamban may shift their Permanent Retirement Account Number to the All Citizen Model or other sectors through an inter-platform transfer process. The subscriber submits an Inter Platform Shift form along with a target sector registration form and the original Permanent Retirement Account Number card or a notarized affidavit to the new nodal office. The Central Recordkeeping Agency creates a new Permanent Retirement Account with a new Permanent Retirement Account Number, disables the old Permanent Retirement Account Number, monetizes the accumulated corpus, and credits the proceeds into the new account. Subscribers do not submit new Know Your Customer documents if previous records match the new address. The Central Recordkeeping Agency prints and dispatches the new Permanent Retirement Account Number card without extra charges.

Subject: Portability of PRAN – NPS Lite/Swavalamban to NPS – All Citizen Model and other sectors
There were several requests from NPS Lite/Swavalamban subscribers seeking porting of their PRANs from NPS Lite/Swavalamban to the All Citizen Model of NPS (UOS). PFRDA after examining the matter has approved the shifting/porting of NPS/Lite/Swavalamban accounts to NPS-All Citizen model and other Sectors through an Inter platform shift process which is detailed as below:
The subscriber has to submit the following documents to the new nodal office (POP/PAO/DDO etc) who in turn will process the application and forward the document to CRA.
CRA upon receipt of request would initiate the process for creation of new Permanent Retirement Account (PRA) with new PRAN for the subscriber on the target platform and disable the earlier PRAN of the subscriber in the system. The earlier/old PRAN would not be allotted to anybody else in the system. Also, the earlier record would be tagged to the new account for audit trail as well as for knowing information like if the subscriber has availed Swavalamban benefit under the earlier PRAN or not etc.
CRA would issue necessary instructions for monetization of the accumulated corpus in the old/earlier PRAN and also necessary instructions for crediting of such accumulated corpus received upon monetization into the new PRAN account. The entire activity would be a controlled activity from CRA end.
There would not be any requirement of providing KYC documents once again by the subscriber, if the same have been submitted/collated at the time of subscriber registration under NPS already and the address provided in the new registration for is matching with that of existing record. If there is any change in the address from the existing NPS account address proof need to be submitted afresh. The CRA would tag the KYC documents to the new PRAN and ensure that all the required details are available.
CRA would print and dispatch the PRAN card directly to the subscriber/aggregator as the case may be and CRA would not be charging any extra charges for the same.
Subscribers intending to shift their PRAN from NPS Lite/Swavalamban to All Citizen Model and other sectors may approach the new/intended contribution uploading office (POP/PAO/DDO etc) for doing the needful on the matter. The format for Inter platform shift (IPTR-1) form is being attached along with the circular.

Declaration
I agree to be bound by the terms and conditions for the target sector (in which my PRAN will belong after processing of this Inter Platform Transfer request) and understand that CRA may, as approved by PFRDA, amend any of the services completely or partially without any new Declaration / Undertaking being signed. Further, I agree to pay all the necessary charges, as applicable, of the target sector.
Also, I agree to abide by the condition that the benefits payable under NPS at the time of exit would be subject to the overriding condition of NPS-Swavalamban whereby the entire accumulated pension wealth would be annuitised in case if the monthly pension obtained by using the 40%/80% (as applicable basing on the exit guidelines of NPS) of the pension wealth is below Rs.1000/- per month having received a government co-contribution towards the NPS accumulations. Also, I further understand that receipt of government co-contribution during a single year would be enough for the above condition to take effect.

DISCLAIMER: The merger of funds from source PRAN will result in switch-out of units from one or more scheme and switch-in to another. The process of switch-out of units i.e., redemption of units will be carried out on day T and then subsequently, investment will be made on day T+3. Both redemption and investment will happen on the basis of Net Asset Value (NAV) of the schemes as on that date. NAV may vary between T and T+3. Hence, variation in NAV on T and T+3 may result in gain/loss to the subscriber.
