Cevap

The correct statements are that Atal Pension Yojana provides a guaranteed minimum monthly pension ranging from ₹1,000 to ₹5,000 upon reaching 60 years of age, and that the scheme is open to Indian citizens in the unorganized sector aged between 18 and 40 years.
The Atal Pension Yojana (APY) guarantees a fixed monthly pension tier between ₹1,000 and ₹5,000 for unorganized workers upon reaching 60 years of age. Eligible subscribers must enter between 18 and 40 years of age.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate the pension benefits structure of Atal Pension Yojana
Confirm that subscribers receive a guaranteed monthly pension of ₹1,000 to ₹5,000 after age 60 based on their age of joining and chosen contribution tier.
This is the core financial assistance guarantee under the APY scheme.
2
Evaluate the age eligibility criteria for subscribers
Verify that entry age is strictly 18 to 40 years, ensuring a minimum contribution period of 20 years before turning 60.
The APY framework requires subscriber contributions up to 60 years of age.
3
Identify the nodal regulatory authority and exclusion criteria
Identify PFRDA as the administering body (not IRDAI) and note that income taxpayers are ineligible under current regulations.
Administrative oversight lies under the NPS architecture managed by PFRDA, and social welfare targeting explicitly excludes income tax payers.

Anahtar Kavram

Atal Pension Yojana (APY) eligibility rules, pension slab structure, regulatory oversight by PFRDA, and taxpayer exclusion norms.
