Frequently asked questions on New Pension Scheme and its deduction u/s 80CCD

Q1: Who can claim deduction u/s 80CCD regarding new pension scheme?

A1:   As per the provisions of section 80CCD of the Income Tax Act, 1961,

  • Where an assessee, being an individual employed by the Central Government on or after the 1st day of January, 2004, has in the previous year paid or deposited any amount in his account under a pension scheme as notified vide Notification No. F.N. 5/7/2003- ECB&PR dated 22.12.2003, he shall be allowed a deduction in the computation of his total income, of the whole of the amount so paid or deposited as does not exceed ten per cent of his salary in the previous year.
  • The benefit of new pension scheme has been extended to any other employees (also self-employed person) with retrospective effect from 1-4- 2009 (A.Y. 2009-10)
  • Similarly, w.r.e.f A.Y. 2009-10 deduction u/s 80CCD is also allowed to employees up to 10 per cent of salary in the previous year and in other cases up to 10 per cent of his gross total income in the previous year.

Q2: What is the quantum of deduction u/s 80CCD?

A2: Circular No-1/2010 dated 11th Jan’2010 issued on the subject of Deduction of Tax at Source etc. clarifies that in accordance with the provisions of Section 80 CCD, deduction in respect of contribution made by an individual in the previous year to his account under a pension scheme notified, is allowed in computation of his total income –

(a) In the case of an employee, ten per cent of his salary in the previous Year; and

(b) In any other case, ten per cent of his gross total income in the Previous year.

2. It further clarifies that where the Central Government or any other Employer makes any contribution to the account of employee for the pension scheme, the assessee shall also be allowed a deduction in the computation of his total income of the whole of the amount contributed by the Central Govt. or any other employer as does not exceed 10% of his salary in the previous year.

One point that needs clarification is that whether contribution made by Central Government or other employer needs to be added to the income of the assessee before allowing deduction or not. In my opinion, yes, firstly it should be added and then deduction u/s 8OCCD should be allowed.

Q3: What is the meaning of salary for the purposes of section 80CCD?

A3: Salary for the purpose of section 80 CCD includes dearness allowance if the terms of employment so provide, but excludes all other allowances and perquisites.

Q4: Can you please illustrate the above with the help of an example?

A4: sure, let’s take an example:

Mr. X is a central govt. employee under the new contributory pension scheme; Govt contributes 10% to his pension fund.

Mr. X’s salary structure is as follows:

Basic salary- 2, 00,000/-

D.A. (included for the purpose of retirement benefits) 100,000.00

Allowances taxable: 40000.00

Perquisites taxable: 60000.00

Investment u/s 80C LIC/M/F = 1,00,000.00

Mr. X has contributed Rs. 30,000.00 to his new pension scheme and the central Govt. also makes a matching contribution of Rs. 30,000.00. Compute the income and deduction u/s 80 CCD.

The income of Mr. X is as under:

Particulars Income Total income
Basic salary 2,00,000.00
D.A. 1,00,000.00
Allowances taxable 40,000.00
Perquisites 60,000.00
Central Govt. contrib. to NPS 30,000.00 4,30,000.00
Deduction u/s 80CCD (1) Employee’s contribution 10% of Basic salary+ DA 30,000.00
Deduction u/s 80CCD (2) Employer’s contribution 10% of Basic salary+ DA 30,000.00
Deduction u/s 80C Restricted to 40,000.00 though investment is 1,00,000.00 because of section 80CCE 40,000.00
Net taxable income 3,30,000.00

Q5:? Can I claim deduction on account of NPS u/s 80 C?

A5:, NPS contribution cannot be claimed u/s 80C, as section 80CCD (4) clearly disallows any deduction u/s 80C on account of NPS

80CCD (4) Where any amount paid or deposited by the assessee has been allowed as a deduction under sub-section (1),—

(a)   no rebate with reference to such amount shall be allowed under section 88 for any assessment year ending before the 1st day of April, 2006;

(b)   no deduction with reference to such amount shall be allowed under section 80C for any assessment year beginning on or after the 1st day of April, 2006.]

Another point that I see which is quite harsh for the employees is that the aggregate amount of deduction under sections 80C, 80CCC and 80CCD cannot exceed Rs. 1,00,000 (section 80CCE)

Q6: What is the tax treatment at the time of withdrawal of fund from NPS?

A6: The NPS would follow the EET (Exempt – Exempt – Taxed) regime of taxation.

There are basically 3 types of taxation regimes,”

(1)   EEE- Exempt Exempt Exempt- example LIC

(2)   EET- Exempt Exempt Taxable- example NPS (3) ETE- Exempt, taxed, Exempt- FDR for 5 years.

Some more examples:

Public Provident Fund (PPF)

Investment: Tax-deductible Accumulation: Tax-free Withdrawal: Tax-free

That is, the Exempt – Exempt – Exempt or EEE regime is followed for PPF.

National Savings Certificate (NSC)

Investment: Tax-deductible Accumulation: Taxable Withdrawal: Tax-free

That is, the Exempt – Taxed – Exempt or ETE regime is followed for NSC.

Provident Fund (PF) and Voluntary Provident Fund (VPF)

Investment: Tax-deductible Accumulation: Tax-free Withdrawal: Tax-free

That is, the Exempt – Exempt – Exempt or EEE regime is followed for PF and VPF.

Some pension plans

Investment: Tax-deductible

Accumulation: Tax-free

Withdrawal: Taxed (The monthly pension is taxable)

That is, the Exempt – Exempt – Taxed or EET regime is followed for them.

Tax Saving Fixed Deposits

Investment: Tax-deductible Accumulation: Taxable Withdrawal: Tax-free

That is, the Exempt – Taxed – Exempt or ETE regime is followed for these FDs.

    Dear sir,
    In my form 16, employer contribution is not shown as income.
    But as mentioned aforesaid in your post that the contribution made by the employer shall be added as income to the salary of employee and there after the employee can claim deduction for the said amount u/s 80CCD(2).
    Kindly clarify by doing this whether the provision of 80 CCD (2) are not becoming redundant as first reckoning the amount as income and there after giving the deduction of the same amount does not make any logic.
    Kindly clarify the idea behind the same by throwing light on the following points in this context :
    i) Whether the employee should prefer neither showing it as income nor claiming any deduction.
    ii) Whether I can claim deduction for employers contribution and not showing it as income (as mentioned aforesaid the same is not shown in my form 16).
    Please offer your comments and kindly guide on the same.

    I am a state govt. employee of Maharashtra state. we have moved to NPS from May-2015.From May-2015, the 10% of employer’s contribution is also displayed in our monthly income. while at deduction side, 10% of both employee’s and employer’s contribution is deducted from our salary.
    So my question is :
    1) Does 10% of employer’s contribution in income be considered as taxable?
    If Yes, than
    2) Does the employer’s contribution in deduction be considered as saving under 80CCD?
    Please explain in detail and add some other important points related to my question if any??

    Whether the arrear of last FY paid in NPS due to non/late generation of PRAN number can be included in deduction? I joined in central government service on May, 2013 but the NPS contribution from June 2013-Jan 14 was paid on February 2014 due to late generation of PRAN. The arrear contribution added an extra income of around 45,000 in my total income for the FY 2014-15
