Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 65 years

Now, any Indian Citizen, resident or non-resident, between the age of 60-65 years, can also join NPS and continue up to the age of 70 years in NPS. With this increase of joining age, the subscribers who are willing to join NPS at the later stage of life will be able to avail the benefits of NPS.
